Description Peter Jensen 2003-08-14 02:58:20 UTC
When trying to emerge app-misc/glimpse I get the error message:
---BEGIN---
>>> Downloading http://webglimpse.net/trial/glimpse-4.15.tar.gz

Error: The file was not found on the server!
----END----

The latest version of glimpse is 4.17.4, which does not have an ebuild, so I
took the liberty of creating one.  The diff between the current and the new
version is:
---BEGIN---

 src_compile() {

-       make distclean || die
        econf || die
        make || die
 }
----END----

I had to remove the make distclean line, as it didn't work.  It apparently works
fine without.

After examining the patch file and the new sources, I concluded that it was no
longer needed, as they now include the errno.h file in the relevant files.  The
program seems to compile and work fine with this new ebuild.
