Description Ryan C. Gordon 2003-12-30 18:07:38 UTC 
Merging xdelta has problems at configure time. 

Configure gets messages like this:

checking build system type... Invalid configuration `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu': machine `x86_64-unknown' not recognized

 ... snip ...

ltconfig: you must specify a host type if you use `--no-verify'
Try `ltconfig --help' for more information.
configure: error: libtool configure failed


...this is just an outdated configure script, I guess. Adding "./autogen.sh" to 
the start of the ebuild's src_compile() function regenerates the configure script and fixes the build issues.

Also, the program has been tested and appears functional on amd64, so you can consider added it to the KEYWORDS.

--ryan.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=x86 emerge dev-util/xdelta
2.
3.



Expected Results:  

Compiled.  :)
