The stable ebuild for simh is 3.3.0 and the latest unstable ebuild is 3.7.0. There are some things that needs 3.8-1 and that's available from http://simh.trailing-edge.com/sources/simhv38-1.zip. Is it possible for a new unstable ebuild for 3.8-1 to be put into portage? Thanks!
Created attachment 246390 [details] simh-3.8.1.ebuild
Created attachment 246391 [details, diff] simh-3.8.1-asneeded.patch Only differences from simh-3.7.0-asneeded.patch is whitespace changes in simh makefile.
Created attachment 246392 [details, diff] simh-3.8.1-makfile.patch Again, only changes from existing patch are whitespace changes in the makefile.
Attached files work for me, and contain no non-whitespace changes from what we had with 3.7.0.
The patches should go into files/, I had a problem emerging the build until I realized they needed to go into that subdirectory. Otherwise it all works for me, thanks for all your hard work!
I've committed the ebuild and patches to the tree. Closing. :)
Tested on x86 - works just fine!
