vocoditor-1.1.1.ebuild (not working! src_install needs to be rewritten)

First of all, this ebuild is not working !

This program only has "make install" with PREFIX-DIR set to /usr/local (which
needs to be changed to /usr) and doesn't provide and ./configure.
Unfortunately, I don't know any ways to change the prefix path (I think you
need to access the makefile and change the prefix path there, but I don't know
how to accomplish that).

Anyway, hopefully somebody knows how do this. The dependencies and USE-Flag of
this ebuild should work, so you just need to rewrite src_install ...

vocoditor-1.1.1.ebuild (working)

I worked a little on it
and this new ebuild should be working.

Anyway,
the application's website only provides binary downloads,
so keep in mind that the ebuild doesn't compile from source ...

Please see documentation as your ebuild looks wrong.

[Comment 4 Samir van de Sand 2005-05-18 05:45:32 UTC]

Sorry, I have read the documentation already various times but I don't see where
this ebuild is wrong.
Anyway, I don't mean that there is no error with it.

I would be grateful if you could show the error, so that I can learn of my
mistake (even though I know that this means work for you ...).

Please fix the following and reopen:

* http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm/docs/mw-faq/spacing.txt (src_install)
* http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm/docs/mw-faq/docfiles.txt
* You're missing some RDEPEND entries.

corrected version of vocoditor-1.1.1.ebuild

Ok, I've corrected the ebuild (should be fine now). What I've changed:

*Ebuild is more readable by structuring it using indents and line breaks.
*Corrected files which are processed by 'dodoc'.
*Moved dependencies from 'DEPEND' to 'RDEPEND' because they are needed during
runtime.
*Fixed perl libary path using 'perl -V:installarchlib' instead of copying perl
modules into /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.6 because this may lead to problems when
someones uses another version of perl than 5.8.6 .

Therefore I'm requesting to reopen the bug ...

reopened as requested.

Upstream recommends no longer using this.
