I wrote an ebuild to install the netstat LCDd (LCDproc) client "netlcdclient". This is my first ebuild so if you recognize any issues, please report. 1. Download netlcdclient-0.2.2.ebuild.tar.bz2 2. unpack it to /usr/local/portage 3. do '# ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge netlcdclient' hope it works :)
Created attachment 30592 [details] netlcdclient-0.2.2.ebuild.tar.bz2
Reattach as text/plain please.
Created attachment 30674 [details] netlcdclient-0.2.2.ebuild This is the ebuild in plain text. It needs three more files (netlcdclient, netlcdclient.conf, netlcdclient-0.2.2.diff) in it's files/ dir.
wanna try this too =?
I get a compile error: >>> emerge (1 of 1) app-misc/netlcdclient-0.2.2 to / >>> md5 files ;-) netlcdclient-0.2.2.ebuild >>> md5 files ;-) files/digest-netlcdclient-0.2.2 >>> md5 files ;-) files/netlcdclient.conf >>> md5 files ;-) files/netlcdclient-0.2.2.diff >>> md5 files ;-) files/netlcdclient >>> md5 src_uri ;-) netlcdclient-0.2.2.tar.gz >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking netlcdclient-0.2.2.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/netlcdclient-0.2.2/work /usr/lib/portage/bin/ebuild.sh: line 20: epatch: command not found >>> Source unpacked. gcc -Wall -march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -c netlcdclient.c -DVERSION=\"0.2.2\" gcc -march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -c sockets.c netlcdclient.c:299:17: missing terminating " character netlcdclient.c: In function `usage': netlcdclient.c:301: error: `i' undeclared (first use in this function) netlcdclient.c:301: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once netlcdclient.c:301: error: for each function it appears in.) netlcdclient.c:301: error: syntax error before '...' token netlcdclient.c:301: error: stray '\' in program netlcdclient.c:301: error: stray '\' in program netlcdclient.c:301: error: stray '\' in program netlcdclient.c:301: error: stray '\' in program netlcdclient.c:301: error: stray '\' in program netlcdclient.c:301: error: stray '\' in program netlcdclient.c:301: error: stray '\' in program netlcdclient.c:309: error: stray '\' in program netlcdclient.c:309: error: stray '\' in program netlcdclient.c:309: error: stray '\' in program netlcdclient.c:309: error: stray '\' in program netlcdclient.c:309: error: stray '\' in program netlcdclient.c:309: error: stray '\' in program netlcdclient.c:315:1: missing terminating " character netlcdclient.c: In function `format_value': netlcdclient.c:506: warning: integer constant is too large for "long" type netlcdclient.c:506: warning: comparison is always true due to limited range of data type netlcdclient.c:519: warning: integer constant is too large for "long" type netlcdclient.c:519: warning: comparison is always false due to limited range of data type netlcdclient.c: In function `format_value_multi_interface': netlcdclient.c:598: warning: integer constant is too large for "long" type netlcdclient.c:598: warning: comparison is always true due to limited range of data type netlcdclient.c:617: warning: integer constant is too large for "long" type netlcdclient.c:617: warning: comparison is always false due to limited range of data type make: *** [netlcdclient.o] Error 1 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... !!!

Created attachment 58885 [details] netlcdclient-0.2.3.tar.bz2 1. Download netlcdclient-0.2.2.ebuild.tar.bz2 2. unpack it to /usr/local/portage 3. do '# ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge netlcdclient' The attachment "netlcdclient-0.2.3.ebuild" is just the ebuild, it needs two more files (netlcdclient, netlcdclient.conf) in it's files/ dir.
That one (0.2.3) works for me, thanks for creating it. I'm going to use this one as a template for other clients, I've never created an ebuild before so I hope it works out well.
Looks like fitting into lcd herd, Rob?
I have reworked the ebuild at [1], but I am unsure about the category naming. Also, the package does not support the current lcdproc-0.5.0 api. I contacted the author of the program to see if it is still maintained. [1] http://overlays.gentoo.org/dev/jokey/browser/trunk/app-misc/netlcdclient
As we have an LCD alias now, reassigning, sorry for bugspam
Created attachment 99652 [details] netlcdclient-0.2.3.ebuild I reworked the ebuild, included a patchset by Markus Dolze, and changed some lines myself. Nevertheless, I found out that the client is included in lcdproc-0.5.0 already as 'iface' screen (doh!) and was heavily improved, so working with these unmaintained sources does not seem a too great idea.
Created attachment 99653 [details] netlcdclient-0.2.3-additional-files.tar.gz netlcdclient.confd and netlcdclient.initd for 'files' netlcdclient-0.2.3-md-patchset.patch.gz has to be in SRC_URI
I'm tempted to say the same as if the support is already provided, why mess with old and possibly broken sources?
Due to no activity, WONTFIX
