Since development of the famous midnight commander seems to stall at version http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/mc/mc-4.6.2-pre1.tar.gz But there is no way to compile mc-4.6.1 on ppc64 cause of umode_t handling (see Bug #208949) i would like to see the version 4.6.2-pre1 in gentoo. That pre1 version runs without a crash on my playstation3-ppc64 since 2 weeks.
added for testing into p.mask
I've emerged mc-4.6.2-pre1 on my x86 machine. I found that in mcedit the cursor disappears on whitespace characters. For example on space and tab "characters". I see the blue dots, and arrows which I think should symbolize whitespace characters, but I can't see the cursor when it's over them. Is it a bug or feature? :) emerge --info Portage 2.1.4.4 (default-linux/x86/2007.0/desktop, gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.6.1-r0, 2.6.24-gentoo-r6 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.24-gentoo-r6 i686 AMD Turion(tm) 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-52 Timestamp of tree: Thu, 01 May 2008 13:45:01 +0000 distcc 2.18.3 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled] ccache version 2.4 [enabled] app-shells/bash: 3.2_p17-r1 dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.1.4 dev-lang/python: 2.5.2-r2 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r6 dev-util/ccache: 2.4-r7 sys-apps/baselayout: 2.0.0 sys-apps/openrc: 0.2.3 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.18.1-r2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61-r1 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10.1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.18-r1 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.0-r4 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.26 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.23-r3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -msse3 -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/gentoo-release /etc/php/apache2-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cgi-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cli-php5/ext-active/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/splash /etc/terminfo /etc/udev/rules.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -msse3 -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/home/gentoo/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="buildpkg ccache distlocks metadata-transfer parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/mirror/gentoo/ http://gentoo.inf.elte.hu http://gentoo.inode.at " LANG="hu_HU.UTF-8" LC_ALL="hu_HU.UTF-8" LINGUAS="hu" MAKEOPTS="-j4" PKGDIR="/home/gentoo/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/home/gentoo/tmp" PORTDIR="/home/gentoo/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/home/gentoo/overlay /home/gentoo/overlay-compiz" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="3dnow 3dnowext X acpi alsa bzip2 cairo cdr cli cracklib crypt dbus dri dvd dvdr dvdread emboss evo fam firefox flac ftp gdbm gnome gnome-keyring gstreamer gtk gtk2 hal howl iconv isdnlog jpeg lcms libnotify mad midi mikmod mmx mmxext mp3 mpeg mudflap ncurses nls nptl nptlonly ogg opengl openmp pam pcre pdf perl png pppd python qt3support quicktime readline reflection sdl session slang spl sse sse2 ssl svg tcpd tiff truetype udev unicode vorbis win32codecs x86 xinerama xml xorg xv zlib" ALSA_CARDS="hda-intel" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic auth_digest authn_dbd authn_default authn_file authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache dav dav_fs dav_lock dbd deflate dir env expires ext_filter filter headers ident imagemap include info log_config mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif so speling status userdir usertrack unique_id vhost_alias suexec" APACHE2_MPMS="worker" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse synaptics" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" LINGUAS="hu" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia vesa" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LDFLAGS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS The USE flags of mc. balage@aurora ~ $ equery uses mc [ Searching for packages matching mc... ] [ Colour Code : set unset ] [ Legend : Left column (U) - USE flags from make.conf ] [ : Right column (I) - USE flags packages was installed with ] [ Found these USE variables for app-misc/mc-4.6.2_pre1 ] U I + + X : Adds support for X11 - - gpm : Adds support for sys-libs/gpm (Console-based mouse driver) + + nls : Adds Native Language Support (using gettext - GNU locale utilities) - - samba : Adds support for SAMBA (Windows File and Printer sharing)
