Bug 245534 – [PATCH] x11-libs/Xaw3d-1.5-r1 can not be emerged on amd64-linux

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo/Alt

[Description Stefan Hoelldampf 2008-11-04 15:37:02 UTC]

The following patch fixes two issues in the x11-libs/Xaw3d/Xaw3d-1.5-r1.ebuild for amd64-linux:

1. "xmkmf -DHaveLib64=NO || die" forces the build to use $EPREFIX/usr/lib instead of $EPREFIX/usr/lib64 during installation. I hope the additional define does not cause any problems on platforms other then amd64-linux.

2. The solaris fix introduced -r31747 somehow overrides the SHLIBLDFLAGS value "-shared" of the Makefile on amd64-linux. Thus a shared library can not be created due to the missing "-shared".

amd64-linux does not and *should not* have usr/lib64/, I thought this was clear by now. =)

Ok. Will look into it.

Oh, I read that wrong, I see that you fixed it. I read it as the opposite. Anyway, it won't cause a problem on other prefix installations because we don't do multilib and hence shouldn't have a lib64 anywhere else.

Committed, I just made the xmkmf bit conditional on prefix. thx
