• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jesús P Rey (Chuso) 2003-04-16 19:29:59 UTC]

This is client part of the software cited in the IRC RFC.
I decided to create separate ebuilds for client and server even when they are delivered together.


Reproducible: Always

Well, this client is really ugly.
I can't imagine anyone want to use it for any other purpose than debugging.
Perhaps spliting ircd into irc-client and irc-server (19449) may not be a good idea. Both may be released as "ircd". Doesn't it?

Well,

I think its a good idea to seperate the client and the server, because I wouldnt want to install a server just to use an irc client.

I just had a look at your ebuild and I couldnt get it to work properly. There were  sanbox access errors when I tried to install the irc client. However, I made a lot of changes to your ebuild to get it working properly. I created a diff of the changes I made to your ebuild.

I disagree with

    -cd `support/config.guess`
    +cd ${CHOST}

since CHOST and support/config.guess sometimes doesn't have the same value and the name of the directory is the return of support/config.guess (configure lines 22 and 29).
For example, in my computer CHOST is i686-pc-linux-gnu but support/config.guess returns i686-pc-linux-gnuoldld.

I am back from my vacation, and I will have a look at this tonight when I get home.

Updated patch.

I cleaned up my patch and it now uses cd support/config.guess. This would only
be a temporary fix for the ebuild, in a next release I would probably would
write a patch to recognize the right CHOST in /etc/make.conf. 

Greg I ran the updated ebuild on my system and I was able to connect to irc
without a problem.I would recommend that this ebuild would be submitted into
cvs. However, please check to make sure I havent left anything out.

Thanks
CHuck

Noticed some typos in my patch. I fixed my local copy and added it to cvs. Thank you for your ebuild.
