Bug 175272 – keyword request for app-editors/hteditor

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Daniel Black (RETIRED) 2007-04-19 20:59:52 UTC]

As per URL (2.0beta news) hteditor is really cool and can do x86_64, ppc64 and arm assembly.

if you so desire please keyword as follows:
amd64 stable - app-editors/hteditor-2.0
~ppc64 unstable - app-editors/hteditor-2.0.3
~arm unstable - app-editors/hteditor-2.0.3

Test plan.

its an executable editor so treat it as such:
cp /bin/ls /tmp
/usr/bin/ht /tmp/ls
F6 - select program header
select program header offset
F4 (edit) - change offset to a slightly different value
F6 - select elf image
F4 (edit) - enter arbitary hex and show what a good assembler programmer you are.
F2 save
F10 exit

run /tmp/ls and admire your reworked masterpiece :-)

-- Authors comments that I endorce.
It would be cool to get this stable on x86, too. I don't really like
to maintain the 0.9.x and 2.0 releases in parallel and, as far as I
can tell, the 2.0 releases have no regressions compared to the 0.9.x
releases.
----

please x86 stabilise 2.0 so I can punt the 0.9* series.

amd64 stable

[Comment 3 Daniel Black (RETIRED) 2007-04-20 23:23:01 UTC]

better include the ppc folks in a stable request so I can truely punt 0.9*.
ppc - stable request for hteditor-2.0.

[Comment 4 Markus Rothe (RETIRED) 2007-04-21 08:35:15 UTC]

this isn't ppc64 friendly.. it segfaults:


(gdb) bt
#0  0x00000000101a4a2c in AnalyserHTOutput::endLine (this=0x16838) at out_ht.cc:133
#1  0x1b10000000000001 in ?? ()


I've send upstream a message about this issue. let's wait and see if he can fix it.

[Comment 5 Sebastian Biallas 2007-04-21 12:52:24 UTC]

Fixed loading of ppc64 ELFs in 2.0.4. Thanks for finding this.

[Comment 6 Raúl Porcel (RETIRED) 2007-04-21 19:21:16 UTC]

x86 stable

[Comment 7 Daniel Black (RETIRED) 2007-04-21 22:22:03 UTC]

added 2.0.4 for ppc64 pleasureing.

[Comment 8 Markus Rothe (RETIRED) 2007-04-22 07:21:24 UTC]

2.0.4 still segfaults on ppc64. waiting for upstream.

Sebastian released 2.0.5 which now runs perfect on ppc64. I've done the version bump and added ~ppc64. will go stable in ~30 days.

0.9 series removed from gentoo. long live the 2.0 series. Thanks Sebastian.

arm peoples feel free to keyword at your convenience. Its a cool program after all.
