Htmlrecode doesn't compile on amd64, however it works for me just by adding -m32 to the Makefiles. I don't know if this is the preferred way to solve the problem, but I really need this tool and this was the easiest solution for me. Here follow the changes I've made. Could this be somehow added to the ebuild? Or a better solution? (And BTW: I use the latest bugfix release 1.3.0 while the latest ebuild in portage is still 1.2.0) Reproducible: Always diff -Naur old/argh/Makefile new/argh/Makefile --- old/argh/Makefile 2004-02-22 00:21:22.000000000 +0000 +++ new/argh/Makefile 2008-06-18 15:25:20.000000000 +0100 @@ -6,7 +6,8 @@ include Makefile.sets -CPPFLAGS+=-DNEED_ARGH_H +LDFLAGS=-m32 +CPPFLAGS+=-DNEED_ARGH_H -m32 INSTALL=install INSTALLLIBS=libargh.so LIBDIR=/usr/local/lib @@ -16,9 +17,9 @@ all: libargh.so libargh.a libargh.so: argh.lo - $(CXX) -g -shared -Wl,-soname=$@ -o $@ $^ + $(CXX) $(LDFLAGS) -g -shared -Wl,-soname=$@ -o $@ $^ argh.lo: argh.cc - $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) -fpic -o $@ -c $< + $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) -fpic -o $@ -c $< libargh.a: argh.o ar -rc $@ $^ diff -Naur old/Makefile new/Makefile --- old/Makefile 2004-09-18 23:26:05.000000000 +0100 +++ new/Makefile 2008-06-18 15:12:18.000000000 +0100 @@ -1,12 +1,13 @@ VERSION=1.3.0 include Makefile.sets #LDFLAGS=-liconv - not needed apparently +LDFLAGS=-m32 # Note: If you get linkage errors from basic_string this and that, # try this kind of command to force using an older g++ version. #CXX=/usr/gcc3/bin/i586-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -CPPFLAGS := $(CPPFLAGS) -Iargh +CPPFLAGS := $(CPPFLAGS) -m32 -Iargh ARCHDIR=archives/ ARCHNAME=htmlrecode-$(VERSION)
1.3.0 is now in the tree, with a patch for amd64 compatibility and fixes for gcc-4.3. Thanks for reporting.
