Somewhere I found an experimental sci-misc/boinc-6.2.16 ebuild. Tonight I revisited it and tweaked it with stuff from the latest sci-misc/boinc-6.2.15.ebuild and finally got it to work relatively cleanly. I am sure that it needs ***lots*** of more tweaks before it is submittable, but I am posting it in the hopes that it will be useful for getting the next version of boinc up and running. One thing I had to remove from boinc-6.2.16-r1 that was in boinc-6.2.15 was the SRC_URI's for the bindist files. So, bindist cannot work until that is resolved, but at this point it compiles on my machine but is not yet fully tested. Once again, I hope this is useful...

It should be noted that at the time of writing, 6.4.5 is also released.
Thanks Michael, I was able to get 6.4.5 compiled (not run tested yet) by patching samples/example_app/Makefile to deal gracefully with the recursive install. I also had to add >=app-misc/pax-utils-0.1.19 to RDEPEND due to a errors caused by scanelf "scanelf: Sorry, long names not yet supported; output will be incomplete for..." using pax-utils-0.1.19 fixed the problem (see bug report 252855). So, with minor changes to the ebuild posted above 6.4.5 builds.
FYI, since the last post that I have tested things and have completed a couple of tasks. Things appear to be running fine.
6.4.5 in the tree. so wontfix on this one.
Ok. When was it added to the tree? As far as I can tell it was yesterday. How was I supposed to know?
(In reply to comment #5) > Ok. When was it added to the tree? As far as I can tell it was yesterday. > How was I supposed to know? > It has nothing to do with that you opened this bug. I also didnt know about most of the boinc bugs :] I just wrote ebuild on newest and fixed initscripts. And now i am retrospectively closing all relevant bugs that are no longer needed. Of course your bug report was relevant until i started working on 6.4.5 :]
Ah. I see. I was afraid I missed something and you were telling me I had not done due diligence. I'll let this one go and post a new bug on the latest ebuild I found (assuming no one else reported it).
