Bug 234985 – ebuild request dev-ruby/shoes

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Greg Fitzgerald 2008-08-17 05:33:07 UTC]

Would like to request a ebuild for shoes. http://shoooes.net/

It's a multiplatform gui toolkit for ruby. I started a ebuild but currently has two issues I could use help solving.

First is * QA Notice: Pre-stripped files found:

I see no mention of strip anywhere in the make files, so not sure what to do with fixing that one. 

* QA Notice: The following files contain insecure RUNPATH's

Also not sure how to solve this correctly.

Appreciate the any help.

Reproducible: Always

Patch to enable user cflags.

The linker can also strip directly when instructed using the -s flag, perhaps that is what is going on?

I've never run into the RUNPATH issue so I don't know how to fix that without doing some additional digging. As far as I know it means that the run path in the library refers to the build directory, which poses a security risk.

also seems to require media-libs/giflib

This should probably be closed as theres a working ebuild in the ruby overlay and I never got back to fixing this one.

Is there still any interest to get this into the tree? Please reply, otherwise the bug will be marked as WONTFIX in 30 days from now.

4.0.0.pre1 May 10, 2014  seems to be the recent version according to rubygems.

Closing old bug due to no response.
