• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Matthias Vill 2006-08-15 00:29:22 UTC]

Hi there!
Could someone mark foremost ~amd64, so I (and propably others) are able to try wether it works?
If ppc an x86 work for 0.69, amd64 should propably also work.
Thanks

By the way there is also a version 1.2 availibel on the homepage http://foremost.sourceforge.net/

The good: it compiles!

The bad: # foremost
foremost: /usr/local/etc/foremost.conf: No such file or directory

The ugly:  # foremost --help
foremost: invalid option -- -
Try `foremost -h` for more information.
# foremost -h
Segmentation fault

wrong resolution

upstream devs need to fix it up more

Did you try 0.69 or 1.2?

[Comment 6 Jon Hood (RETIRED) 2006-08-18 22:52:34 UTC]

I tried the one in portage: 1.0

[Comment 7 Andreas Thalhammer 2006-10-20 11:23:00 UTC]

Same for me. 1.0 uses my CFLAGS as defined in /etc/make.conf and has segfaults as well as the /usr/local/etc/foremost.conf-issue, 0.69 on the other hand doesn't use my CFLAGS and works. But 0.69 doesn't support -t <filetype> as a built-in function.
BTW I now use 1.3 (as submitted in bug 144065) and this one works perfectly.
