Description Sascha Silbe 2004-09-15 18:08:43 UTC 
swig-1.3.14 has introduced a source-level incompatibility. I've updated sys-libs/libcap-1.10-r4 to use a new python patch.

now in libcap-1.10-r5, thanks
Comment 5 Sascha Silbe 2004-11-29 07:10:07 UTC 
I still cannot see sys-libs/libcap-1.10-r5. The updated python patch is in the files directory (libcap-1.10-python-2.patch), but does not get used by libcap-1.10-r[34].ebuild.
Maybe you forgot to "cvs add" the updated ebuild?
Comment 6 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2004-11-29 17:49:27 UTC 
no, i deleted it

the patch doesnt seem to do anything useful/new
Comment 7 Sascha Silbe 2004-11-30 03:52:33 UTC 
The new patch is needed for >=swig-1.3.14.

Old patch (on a system with >=swig-1.3.14):
sascha@caravan:~$ python
Python 2.3.4 (#1, Oct 20 2004, 14:40:08) 
[GCC 3.3.4 20040623 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.4-r1, ssp-3.3.2-2, pie-8.7.6)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import libcap
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (initlibcap)

Comment 8 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2004-11-30 13:33:32 UTC 
well can you update the patch that is being used by -r4 instead of writing a pretty different version ?

the patch in -r5 re-introduced bugs that -r4 fixed from earlier versions
