Bug 413457 – media-tv/dvbstreamer-2.1.0 version bump

• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description joanandk 2012-04-25 08:03:41 UTC]

Hi,
Libev 4.xx has changed ev_loop from a function to macro, so dvbstreamer refuses to emerge. I have created a ebuild for dvbstreamer-2.1.0, which applies the ev_loop patch and compiles. The compile test was done with 64-Bit system.

BR

Reproducible: Always

The version 2.1.0 seems to work fine, it does not crash when one uses the quit command. Despite 2.0.0_rc1, one has to "kill <PID>" instead of "kill -9 <PID>". Terminating with -9 blocks the dvb-adapter (where 2.0.0_rc1 did not block).

There is a segfault if command "disablesicap" is used (including locking the hardware).

@joanandk .. are you still using this? does it still work? I'm considering adopting to prevent removal from tree .. do you think this may be worthwhile?

Hi Michael,

Yes I am using dvbstreamer-2.1.0. I have created a portage overlay with my own dvbstreamer ebuild. For my application it is well worthy, but I am not sure if other will require it.

Thanks and BR.

The package has been removed.
