I would like to see WxWidgets for Native Aqua applications (i.e. no X) WxWidgets supports a Carbon and a Cocoa based Mac implementation with varying feature completeness. I attach a basic ebuild which could be used to emerge WxWidgets-2.6.3-rc2 The package builds, but somehow doesn't install any files. This may or maybe not have to do that the package has not found a place yet (I used a local overlay and app-misc/wxwidgets as package) The ebuild has no dependencies yet.
Created attachment 82877 [details] basic bootstapping ebuild
perhaps a better package name ould be wxCocoa resp. wxMac
The problem of the not installed files seems to be a sandbox problem. emerge seems to install into a temporary image folder, as in >>> Install wxwidgets-2.6.3 into /var/tmp/portage/wxwidgets-2.6.3/image/ category app-misc man: prepallstrip: /usr/lib/portage/bin/prepstrip: line 1: scanelf: command not found >>> Completed installing wxwidgets-2.6.3 into /var/tmp/portage/wxwidgets-2.6.3/image/ while the "make install" of wxWidgets copies directly into the prefix.
Created attachment 83045 [details, diff] install into the proper destination dir to be picked up by emerge
Created attachment 83082 [details] evuild, v2 A second try for an ebuild, based on wxWidgets eclass. Doesn't emerge cleanly on my system because of some package collisions
Dirk, I'm trying to clean up some bugs here. Is this working better yet or even still requested? Let us know the status.
