Bug 3651 – ebuild for the ViewKlass library

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Scott A. Friedman 2002-06-11 20:36:45 UTC]

The ViewKlass library is a free version of the ViewKit library. ViewKit is an
Object Oriented wrapper for Motif programs. The real ViewKit is not free but
this is a pretty good stab at a clone.

This is my first ebuild submission so if something is not cool - sorry!

There are two files, one is the ebuild and the other is a patch to fix the
Makefile.in file so that the portage/ebuild system builds the library

Thanks,
Scott

Oh yes, I put this library into x11-libs. Maybe you guys think it should go
someplace else?

ViewKlass does not seem compatible with gcc 3.1 or gcc 3.2-cvs.  Unless someone
contributes a patch or upstream fixes it there is no point in checking this in
currently :(

[Comment 5 Scott A. Friedman 2002-08-04 14:48:10 UTC]

I will look into this...

[Comment 6 Scott A. Friedman 2002-08-06 21:33:51 UTC]

I have made changes to this library to make it compatible with gcc-3.x.x and I 
have forwarded the changes to the author.

[Comment 7 Scott A. Friedman 2002-08-07 12:47:33 UTC]

Heard back from the author and the changes will be incorporated into version 
0.6.1 which will be released next week.

Please leave this bug open and I will just provide an updated ebuild.

Hi...

Any news on ViewKlass? :)

[Comment 9 Scott A. Friedman 2002-11-18 00:43:09 UTC]

The author has made chages to the library supporting gcc3.2 which are in cvs. 
I will post a patch against the released version of the library 0.6.0 that we 
use. It builds and runs fine under gentoo.

Update coming so this issue can be closed.

[Comment 10 Scott A. Friedman 2002-11-18 01:14:21 UTC]

Okay, here is an updated ebuild and patch for ViewKlass-0.6.0 to make it work
with gcc-3.2 under gentoo. I called the ebuild version 0.6.0-r1 as it's not
really version 0.6.0 anymore. I also ran the ebuild through lintool and it looks
okay other than the missing header.

Oh yes, I also set the KEYWORD to ~x86 as I guess that is the new regime.

Sorry, I'm inactive and these bugs should have been reassigned to someone else.

Bouncing to bug-wranglers.

Scott, I'm really sorry to see how old this bug got before it was resolved - I guess it has been passed about a bit!! Added to portage with ~x86 keywords (because of the release freeze).
