When runing qemulator, some dialogs like the preferences fails to open, and I get messages in the console like : (qemulator:17500): libglade-WARNING **: could not find glade file '/usr/lib64/qemulator/lib/qemulator/qemulator.glade' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/qemulator", line 4254, in open_settings self.settingsdialog = qml_configuration.Configuration(self.settings_callback) File "/usr/lib64/qemulator/qml_configuration.py", line 119, in __init__ self.dialog_settings = gtk.glade.XML(self.gladefile, "dialog_settings", APP) RuntimeError: could not create GladeXML object Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. qemulator 2. 3.

Created attachment 182682 [details, diff] patch for amd64 arch I've maked a patch to let qemulator run under amrd64 arch.
Created attachment 182684 [details] new ebuild for amd64 arch This is the new ebuild for the above patch. I've added the ~amd64 keyword and i've changed the dep of qemu couse it can run also with kvm. I've commented the kvm deps (to let you decide if it can be correct), but for me works with kvm. I've only to change the qemu command to kvm
Oh i've forgotten one thing: the file /usr/bin/qemulator should be a symlink to /usr/lib/qemulator/qemulator.py (and it should be executable). This way the basedir.patch is not needed anymore. But don't know how to tell the ebuild to do this :(
qemulator hadn't been checked on amd64 and isn't marked amd64 (nor ppc64), maybe you could notify upstream about the issues and suggest improvements, qemulator 0.6 isn't out yet and I'd would be quite happy if we could replace the 0.5 soon. Hopefully getting feedbacks will motivate the author.
Of course i've send an email on the project site including my patch, just before i've filled this bug ^^. I hope they will answer!
The patch is working fine here. Thank you.
I've mailed upstream, but they didn't answered. May be more request from more people will do the trick :D
Packaged masked for removal due to dead upstream. Upstream recommends virtualbricks which is requested in bug #409869, so if you're interested in seeing that package enter Gentoo please make your voice heard there. We won't be fixing this package.
