Created attachment 498086 [details] modified ebuild for raspberries A suggestion for the Kodi-17.4 ebuild. Added flags for raspberry, rpi1, rpi2 and rpi3 Removed dependency X on raspberry architecture, to allow X-less systems. Removed dependency for crossguid, as portage tree provided crossguid does not work (wrong version). Set to use internal crossguid. Added patch for kodi to use better flags on raspberrypi-3 (could be much more enhanced, but actually not a matter of the ebuild but the kodi team)
Created attachment 498088 [details, diff] proposed patch for kodi-17.4 to detect cortex-a53 I know it's part of the KODI team, but maybe someone more involved can forward it to the appropriate guys at kodi?
Created attachment 498226 [details] modified ebuild for raspberries - updated added crossguid as dependency again as I could not reproduce the behaviour of BUG#633762

I've submitted a PR to Kodi at https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/12937 We'll first need to get it into Kodi 18 (the master branch) then we can request a backport to 17. Note, for your patch: * In this case, -march should not be specified in addition to -mcpu - see https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=72736#c2 * -funsafe-math-optimizations is (shockingly!) unsafe, see https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/issues/1385 so I'm not asking Kodi to use it.
Thank you for forwarding this to the KODI team! It's also great that you pointed out the issues with -march and -mcpu; using "-funsafe-math-optimizations" is anyway a thing that people should or should not set via make.conf of package.env - I was a little tired when opening the bug. By the way, is there any plan to include the "raspberry-use-flag" modifications in the ebuild? Thanks for your efforts, Walter

Comment on attachment 502854 [details, diff] kodi stop to run after global gentoo update After downgrade media-libs/mesa-17.1.8 to media-libs/mesa-17.0.6 kodi turn back to life. Apparently solve my problem, but I don't know what cause the incompatibility. Waiting for discussion!

You are running it on i686 and are haveing a problem with mesa. Could you please turn to the appropriate forums with this issue? This bug is about improving the ebuild for RaspberryPi. @CraigAndrews: Is there any plan to implement Raspberry-specific flags in the ebuild? Thanks, Walter
It seems that upstream has implemented the change. I did find it in kodi-18.0b5 and kodi-18.0rc1; others were not checked. PR#13638 was merged into master on the 17th of March. Should we ask for a backport? Personally, i care more for kodi-18 and am happy here.
