I should jump in at this point and say that I'm mostly done with writing
this.

requested ebuild

Here you go. Only change I've made from a stock install is to move /usr/demos
to /usr/share/openinventor-2.1.5/demos.

Sorry it took so long, real life intervened a bit.

patch to correct odd yacc problem and to make font installation sandbox-aware.

[Comment 4 Max Lindner 2004-11-10 11:39:27 UTC]

you must add "inherit eutils" to get epatch working.
Put also then, the make of the demos failed...

[Comment 5 Max Lindner 2004-11-11 02:50:35 UTC]

the following 2 things:

its a pain that openinventor wants to build his demos. I didn't get it to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH correctly.

So I build it on my own.
For building standalone, it's necessary to apply another patch, i'll attach it. This patch would be needed for the ebiuld also I guess, but the ebuild didn't went that far.

This is the Error that shows up:
/usr/lib/libInventor.so: undefined reference to `__ctype_b'

Fix to get it compiling

its necessary to have freetype in your useflags for this patch

[Comment 7 Max Lindner 2004-11-11 02:59:02 UTC]

additionally it depends on csh for man-page building

OpenInventor without the needed environment variables.

James, could you please comment wrt to the copyright?  

If I understand correctly, everything in the portage tree needs to be
copyrighted to Gentoo Foundation, and the copyright you put was on your own
name.  May be a bit silly to ask a gentoo developer if he's ok with this if he
wrote it for portage, but just to make sure...

All-in ebuild package

Regardless of the copyright issue, I've updated the ebuild to build on alpha
and amd64 as well, and fixed some issues/dependencies.	
If the copyright gets sorted out, I'd be willing to maintain this.

[Comment 12 Stefaan De Roeck (RETIRED) 2005-09-16 14:52:32 UTC]

Because of the copyright issues, I created a new ebuild.

Committed to portage, see media-libs.  Have fun!
