Here's a new ebuild for the boehm garbage collection. This new version is needed to have functional gc in Mono. The old version will not work with Mono. The official Mono rpms also require this version of boehm-gc. It's no 1-to-1-copy of the old ebuild, some changes were made: * build the shared libraries too * install the man page into section 3, were it belongs. It's my very first ebuild, so I guess it's not perfect ;o) Cheers, Andreas Simon Btw, I'll also post an ebuild for Mono 0.15.
Created attachment 3471 [details] ebuild Here we go.
I just saw that the DESCRIPTION of the ebuild is a bit long (according to the howto it should be a one-liner). So maybe it should better be shortened to something like: DESCRIPTION="The Boehm-Demers-Weiser conservative garbage collector"
Hi Andreas. Thank you for your submission! It appears, that boehm-gc-6.1 is already in portage. Looks like foser reached this app faster thatn me in his list of new submissions and updates once the freeze was lifted. Anyway thank you again for partiipation. I will close this bug now (unless you will find that another ebuild does not work or this one is somehow better. PLease reopen the bug then). George
