Description HIROSE Masaaki 2006-02-28 02:21:21 UTC 
My linux box kernel is 2.6.14-gentoo-r5.
In this box, kon2 (app-i18n/kon2-0.3.9b-r1) cannot run.

I tried following patch and kon2 become OK.

NOTICE: Not sure, because I've not tested this patch on my system.

FYI, at least it fails to build w/ new sanitized headers on ~amd64
userland, even if w/ this mmap(2) fixes.
And then, this app can not support UTF-8.
To migrate app-i18n/jfbterm is a idea worth considering, IMHO.

Broken for over 2 years without absolutely any response from maintainer, nothing depends on it -> treecleners.
Comment 4 Hans de Graaff gentoo-dev Security 2008-03-23 09:31:43 UTC 
The upstream download location is gone as well, and there never was a homepage for it.

Removal should probably also include media-fonts/konfont as that seems to be included specifically for this package.

+1 from me.

Long enough time has passed for something that doesn't work. 

# Jeremy Olexa <darkside@gentoo.org> (3 Jul 2008)
# Masked for removal in ~30 days by treecleaners. bug #124383
# Doesn't compile, dead upstream, no maintainer.
