Description Dirk Gouders 2009-08-27 13:21:53 UTC
I present an initial ebuild file that creates a standalone version of the
Electronic English-Japanese Dictionary Program by Jim Breen.

Suggestions for improvements are very welcome.

> xjdic-24.ebuild

I have tried this ebuild and it fails to emerge due to lack of .patch
Here is the error: 

* Cannot find $EPATCH_SOURCE!  Value for $EPATCH_SOURCE is:
 * 
 *   /usr/local/portage/app-dicts/xjdic/files/xjdic-24.patch
 *   ( xjdic-24.patch )
 * ERROR: app-dicts/xjdic-24 failed:

 *   environment, line 1049:  Called die
 * The specific snippet of code:
 *               die "Cannot find \$EPATCH_SOURCE!";

I suppose there should not be any .patch..? 
Comment 3 Michal Hájek 2010-03-13 09:36:31 UTC
After removing the corresponding line from .ebuild, the xjdic24 still does not emerge. I somehow cannot attach build.log, so I will put it here:

Sorry, I missed to also add the patch as an attachment.

The patch is at least influenced by the FreeBSD port japanese/edict.

Aha, it looks like one needs to add 
#include <errno.h> into xjdsa.c file.

unfortunately, this is not the case. I tried to add "include <errno.h>" to every .c file which originaly does not have it. But no use. Still the same error.

My guess is that a change in xjdservcomm.c is needed:

-unsigned long jindex(unsigned long it)
+unsigned long jindex(__thread unsigned long it)

But I am currently trying to find out why your gcc reports an error
while mine doesn't...  After I found the reason I am able to verify my guess.

I have tried this suggestion, unfortunately, here is the result:

Michal, could you please try the new patch?
It read that the non-TLS problem reported by gcc can be solved by
including errno.h instead of defining errno.

Comment 15 Michal Hájek 2011-08-18 07:04:29 UTC
great, thank you very much. This time I was able to install xjdic smoothly. 
Now I only need to try using it :) If you need the build log, please let me know.
Comment 16 Michal Hájek 2011-08-18 07:06:09 UTC
oh,... when running it I get:

Comment 17 Michal Hájek 2011-08-18 08:17:49 UTC
Aha, one needs to do "make xjdxgen" and than download edict.gz and kanjidic.gz from 
http://ftp.monash.edu.au/pub/nihongo/00INDEX.html#dic_fil ,

unpack it, run 
xjdxgen /path/to/edict
xjdxgen /path/to/kanjidict

optionaly create $HOME/.xjdicrc  and only than one can use xjdic :D

Anyway, please note, that japanese EUC or Shift-JIS encoding anabled terminal (e.g. kterm) is necessary. That is, UTF-8 xterm will _not_ work out of the box.

Unfortunately, I have never written any .ebuild file, but I suggest it would be a good idea to add the above mentioned steps.

OK, thanks for your problem report.
With my initial patch I have been on a completely wrong track to
solve the non-TLS problem.

Hmm, could you please send the output of `equery files xjdic'?
Mine looks as follows, i.e. eveything needed is installed.

 * Searching for xjdic ...
 * Contents of x11-apps/xjdic-24:
/usr
/usr/bin
/usr/bin/xjdic
/usr/share
/usr/share/xjdic
/usr/share/xjdic/edict

/usr/share/xjdic/radicals.tm
/usr/share/xjdic/radkfile
/usr/share/xjdic/romkana.cnv
/usr/share/xjdic/vconj

Yes, I realize that kterm is needed for xjdic.  Will add a dependency shortly.
I will also provide an updated patch that deals with the mass of
warnings during compilation.

One thing that I also dislike is that xjdic does not know UTF...

...which means that you cannot just cut-and-paste a kanji to get its
reading/meaning if you are using an UTF-8 environment.

hm, this is identical, so the problem was my .xjdicrc file (or the initial absense of it). Now I have included 'dicdir /usr/share/xjdic/' directive and all is fine.

exactly! It would be wonderfull to have utf aware xjdic. (xjdic is the only reason for kterm on my machine).

Patch with path to dictianories and without warnings.

My fault, I forgot the default search path for the dictionaries in the patch.

The new one also deals with the mass of warnings, so it would be nice if you
could show me your build log.

Thanks, the build-log looks good.  No warnings or other uncool stuff ;-)

And thanks for the link concerning the UTF-8 question.  I will see if I
can find useful additions for the ebuild.
