Description Stefan Bergler 2007-02-04 12:39:47 UTC
I'm running vdr on a amd64 system and on a x86 system.
On the amd64 the ebuild for gentoo-vdr-scripts totally respects "USE=nvram" only if I also set "USE=x86" or add:
media-tv/gentoo-vdr-scripts x86
to the file /etc/portage/package.use

That should not be required. Either nvram-wakup works on a platform or it doesn't. But I can not see a good reason why gentoo-vdr-scripts makes an additional decision about it.

In detail:
1. "USE=nvram" is only used for dependencies in the ebuild script.
2. In the ebuild script the variable NVRAM is set depending up on "use x86", nothing else.

For me, that is a bug.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
In /usr/portage/media-tv/gentoo-vdr-scripts/gentoo-vdr-scripts-0.3.8.ebuild
you can find on line 36:
>if use x86; then<
Therefore "emerge gentoo-vdr-scripts" on a non x86 system will reproduce the bug.

So open another bug, get sys-power/nvram-wakeup tested and keyworded on amd64 and reopen once it's done. Until then, it stays as it is.

I have keyworded nvram-wakeup on amd64. Imo it should be handled by use.mask for ppc and any new archs added to gentoo-vdr-scripts and not to nvram-wakeup.

Can this bug be closed, as it seems Vapier did a use-flag cleaning on 2007/03/10. And since then it should work on amd64, but I cannot test it.

This Bug should be fixed. I will test it on the weekend, but I do not expect any surprises. Therefore I set it to fixed.
