Running cppcheck-gui, loading a cppcheck project, and then running a check using, for example, the C++ standard libraries (std.cfg configuration) leads to an error complaining about being unable to find std.cfg, that the program wasn't compiled properly. I took a look at the ebuild-- while we're passing CFGDIR to the compilation of the cppcheck binary, we are not doing the same for the compilation of the cppcheck-gui binary. I have a (rather ugly) patch to the ebuild that fixes this. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a cppcheck project with C++ and try to run a check against a repository Actual Results: Complains about not being able to find std.cfg Expected Results: No complaints I'm using ~amd64.

Created attachment 595418 [details, diff] cppcheck-1.88-fix-cfgdir-gui.patch When applied to the ebuild this fixes the issue. cppcheck-gui is able to find std.cfg properly. I'm not all that happy about all of the escaping that was necessary to get the " to make it through properly.
At this point cppcheck-1.90 is available upstream, and they've completely changed the way they're handling this particular variable. Should we bother patching 1.88 at this point? As an aside, they've renamed CFGDIR to FILESDIR, which collides with the Gentoo FILESDIR variable. In a testing ebuild I have locally, I had to sed s/FILESDIR/FILESDIR_/ to stop the collision from happening for 1.90...
