Bugzilla Bug 65708

The full CERN program library compiled from sources. It includes a variety of
data analysis packages, PAW, minuit, geant, very commonly used in High Energy
Physics.

Created an attachment (id=40643) [details]
cernlib-2003.ebuild

I have been looking at this, but unfortunately it fails for me here quite early
on. This is on amd64 with the new 2005.0 profile. I will test it on x86 when I
get chance too, but it does not seem to be ready for amd64. Alse the make tests
should be moved to src_test, and this package could benefit from local USE
flags to choose which components are built.

I would like to see this added to portage though. I tested the 2004 sources.
Error is below for your information,

Looking at SRC_URI I wonder if this shouldn't better be split into its parts.

In reply to comments #3:
Yes it could for sure, although very tricky. There is a lot of
inter-dependencies between each source. I just have not yet got the courage and
time to deep more into this package. My idea was to also get the nice patches
from the debian package (See http://people.debian.org/~kmccarty/cernlib/),
write an eclass, and split into 4 packages: cernlib-core, cernlib-geant,
cernlib-paw, and cernlib-mc. Well the patches are also inter-dependent. If
anyone is interested in working out this package, I have a early eclass
prototype. 

Note each of the source has some licensing problems as well.

Hi,
  i'm having trouble compiling cernlib. In particular it gives me errors in the
phase of make -k install.bin with this result:

Any hints?

(In reply to comment #5)

thanks to spyderous's suggestion, i've managed to install it. I had to modify
the scripts/Makefile in order to eliminate the -s option to the INSTPGMFLAGS
variable. After that the compile process went well.

Hi,
   i'm trying to build on another machine that has gcc 3.4.5. 
During the make phase i'm encountering this problem:

What can be the cause of this problem?

I updated the ebuild and put it on the gentoo scientific overlay:
http://gentooscience.org.
I decided to install the package as a whole, with the full debian patch set,
which allows to build it in several architectures (among many other
improvements).
Splitting the package was asking too much for a package with such a nasty
installation procedure with little time I want to spend on it.
I tested on amd64 and x86. Test and report in this bug.

It seems like cernlib depends on x11-misc/makedepend.

This change made it compile for me:
