can't emerge media-gfx/xv, failes during build with the following: patching file xvtiff.c patching file Makefile Hunk #1 FAILED at 188. 1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file Makefile.rej patching file tiff/Makefile patching file xv.h Hunk #1 FAILED at 116. 1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file Makefile.rej !!! ERROR: The ebuild did not complete successfully. !!! Function src_unpack, Line 28, Exitcode 1 !!! (no error message)
Hmm, I just tried this on my PPC setup and it worked fine. i reccomend trying to emerge --clean xv and see what happens
i've tried several times, including deleting /var/tmp/portage/* and /usr/portage/distfiles/* the ebuild downloads the patch file and xv source code, they pass the md5 checksum, but it fails during the patch. so somehow my generated Makefile and xv.h are different than the who developed the patch. possibly from use variable settings (i'm guessing here as to what might alter things during a configure). if you like i can post my use variable, or am willing to try anything else suggested. but xv does not build on my pismo/500.
had some spare time, tracked it down to having "png" in my USE variable. with that in, patches fail, with it out, patches succeed and xv builds. hope this helps. -js
Well there is only one use variable for this ebuild and that is for png and that just add's in the patch for the ebuild. the is no ./configure in this pacakge only a Makefile, on my system the patch applies cleanly.. no hunk fails here.. I'm not sure really why it would be failing on you system. Please try to regrab the patch and source just to make sure..if not try to maybe manually apply my patch to clean download of xv and see it it works. naz
