net-analyzer/cnet-2.0.5 fail to compile because libelf.h is missing. this file can be found in dev-libs/libelf. so (IMHO) libelf dependency for cnet is missing. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -C libelf 2. emerge cnet 3. redo 1 and 2 with libelf installed Actual Results: No such file or directory
elfutils also provides /usr/lib/libelf.h. elfutils and libelf mutally exclude each other in the depends and don't provide anything like a virtual/libelf. One definitely will be a dependency so I'll have to look into how to better handle it.
Note to self: Look at ntp ebuild for how to handle elfutils vs. libelf situation.
I'm also seeing this problem.

OK I've added the "OR" dependency on elfutils and libelf. If either one of those is installed, the DEPEND is satisfied, otherwise it will install elfutils. I've just checked it in, give it 20 minutes or so, emerge sync, and try again.
If built with elfutils 0.94-r1, cnet will not simulate correctly. Was tested with STOPANDWAIT example, (as well as others) which gave error message 'cannot read ELFinfo'. This was resolved by using libelf instead. Perhaps libelf dep was correct?
Same problem here. cnet emerged fine but when I try to run some of the provided tests cnet fails: writser@writser EXAMPLES $ cnet STOPANDWAIT cannot get ELFinfo The FAQ of cnet said the following about this: "If running a Linux(ELF) system and your system doesn't provide the libelf package, you'll need the libelf package provided in the distribution. The libelf archive library and header files should already be in their correct locations for successful compilation and linking, but you may with to uncompress, untar and build the libelf-0.6.4 package yourself (as a last resort!)." I tried to install libelf but it conflicted with elfutils. So I did the following: emerge unmerge elfutils emerge -v libelf elfutils emerge unmerge cnet emerge cnet Result: two blocking packages installed (elfutils and libelf) and cnet still doesn't work. Manually installing cnet-2.0.9 from http://www.csse.uwa.edu.au/cnet/install.html fixed the problem, though I still have two conflicting packages on my computer. (Not sure what one to unmerge). I think someone should look after this.
