sci-electronics/gwave in portage is 1 1/2 years outdated and still uses gtk-1. Current version would be 20090213 (using gtk2). I have prepared an ebuild which compiles & installs fine, see attachment. But: the package requires at runtime guile-gnome-gtk, which is not in Gentoo yet... so right now this is just a segfault-machine.

I'have discovered the problem: guile must be compiled with the "networking" USE flag for gwave to work at runtime. I'm submitting my own ebuild that works. Feel free to make any changes you need.

Wow. I'll check that ASAP. If you really found a reliable way to build gwave2 you definitely deserve a cookie. Thanks, Denis.
Ivan, great! Apparently works fine for me. I'll test more tomorrow. Btw, I needed to fix the bug #293655 before compile gwave. Good job!
Created attachment 211290 [details, diff] small fixes in gwave2-20090213.ebuild I improved some things in the ebuild provided by Ivan Filgueiras.
I have just committed that with some unrelated changes, Thanks to all of you and especially Ivan. This is quite an interesting breakthrough. Denis.
