Created attachment 22400 [details] ebuild for svgalib 1.9.18
This is what I get after downloading this, stuffing it in the correct PORTDIR_OVERLAY and ebuild-digesting it: emerge svgalib-1.9.18.ebuild Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) media-libs/svgalib-1.9.18 to / >>> md5 src_uri ;-) svgalib-1.9.18.tar.gz >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking svgalib-1.9.18.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/svgalib-1.9.18/work * Cannot find $EPATCH_SOURCE!

Cannot find $EPATCH_SOURCE!
Please send also the patches updated for this version (gentoo, linux_2.6, versions_h since the versions in 1.9.17 does not work, as comment #2 shows. Is there some way to make these patches more version-independent? Also add the keyword EBUILD to this bug report
martin's added this for us
This ebuild is not yet working for me, because of a sandbox violation: ACCESS DENIED [0m unlink: /usr/src/linux-2.4.25/arch/i386/boot/tools/build rm: cannot remove `tools/build': Permission denied make[1]: *** [clean] Error 1 make: *** [archclean] Error 2 !!! ERROR: media-libs/svgalib-1.9.18 failed. !!! Function src_compile, Line 69, Exitcode 2 !!! Failed to build kernel module!
Also I'm sending to you a patch and a modified ebuild, for fixing a small bug in the savage driver in order to support my graphic card (that otherwise is not detected). This patch was indicated to me by Matan Ziv-Av himself (matan@svgalib.org), the main developer of svgalib.
Created attachment 26130 [details] a patch for the savage driver (see my previous comment)
Created attachment 26132 [details] ebuild modified for my patch
The problems reported on comment #6 were without setting "build" in the USE variable in /etc/make.conf I've tried setting it instead, but it didn't work either. I'm using gcc (GCC) 3.3.2 20031218 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.2-r5, propolice-3.3-7) kernel 2.4.25 (vanilla sources) binutils 2.14.90.0.7 20031029 I'm sending to you the error messages as an atachment
