something's seriously wrong here.. not even globally doing `append-flags -fPIC ` helps to fix this crappy build system
Created attachment 78046 [details, diff] patch that fixes the problem Here's a patch that makes it compile shared libs with -fPIC. I will commit the fixed ebuild tomorrow after I get approval from Simon.
Created attachment 78047 [details, diff] this one seems to actually work properly Well, apparently that last patch just made it get a LOT farther. This is one messed up build system. Anyway this one works, though it's not as clean (I am not absolutely sure that it doesn't compile any executables with -fPIC, but I don't know if this build system has a clean way to ensure that). Sorry about the spam.
Created attachment 78048 [details] ebuild with patch and multilib fixups This has the patch line added and a multilib fixup, though it still needs some work for multilib-strict. When I was testing, I found a missing dep on app-text/rman, and this ebuild also needs to have it's deps fixed for modular X. I will look into that and the multilib-strict issue tomorrow, if I have time.
Created attachment 78075 [details, diff] patch to fix multilib issues
Created attachment 78076 [details] ebuild that applies multilib fixup patch and inserts the proper libdir This compiles cleanly, I have no way to test functionality at the moment, though. I made a patch that replaces the hardcoded lib paths in the app with %GENTOO_LIBDIR%, then ebuild applies the patch, then uses sed to replace %GENTOO_LIBDIR% with the current libdir (output of get_libdir). This is a bit messy, but I could not think of a better way to do it.
Created attachment 78091 [details, diff] xview-dirfix.patch patch to fix up directory references This fixes up directory references in the build tree, it fixes /usr/lib references to be multilib compliant and kills /usr/X11R6 references.
Created attachment 78092 [details] xview-3.2-r5.ebuild fixed ebuild Updated ebuild, this fixes the multilib issues, moves /usr/X11R6 to /usr adds USE flags for examples and docs and fixes the dependencies for modular X
Created attachment 78099 [details] current ebuild Here's the current ebuild, I am not in front of the machine I am testing this with, I need someone to test this with games-fps/imaze and app-editors/jove (use "xjove" to test the version that links against xview) to see if they are working properly.
This library is not 64-bit safe, it compiles cleanly, but any app that uses it just crashes on startup. Masking this and everything that depends on it.
