Created attachment 328318 [details, diff] Simple ebuild change to backport warning fix The current mcelog stable version contains a severe compilation warning: sysfs.c:39:2: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘fstat’ This warning generates a warning at the end of the compilation and a QA Notice. But it was fixed upstream by: https://github.com/andikleen/mcelog/commit/9761d4f9de44d80bbed101757d875f8bc3fc9c87 The unstable version, 1.0_pre3_p20120918, is not available on stable machines as it uses EAPI=5 (which is not available in the lastest stable portage). Would it be possible either to have a non EAPI=5 newer version either to back-port the fix (and the init script ?) ?
hasufell: Just learned I shouldn't CC herd maintainers if I assign to a herd, to avoid that you receive any further comments double I have removed you from CC.
does this produce actual runtime issues? I'm not going out of my way to fix warnings (not errors). reverting back to eapi=4 seems silly, since mixing stable and unstable is not supported anyway (although I use it heavily myself) if you want the update, just use portage from ~arch
