As it is, the ebuild will not work on amd64 platforms: - configure looks for SDL in /usr/include/SDL.h,but this file is in /usr/include/SDL/ - one int/long problem in loadparts.cpp (see patch) The attached patch and ebuild work for me Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

Created attachment 52721 [details, diff] The patch itself
Created attachment 52722 [details] An updated ebuild
Added amd64@g.o to CC in case one of you guys gets to it before vapier or myself.
For the first part, the #include problem, I was debugging this in IRC with somebody who was having that problem. The problem actually is that the command line for the test script has "-I -I/usr/include/SDL", where evidently the first -I is confusing things. I'm guessing it's adding the directory "./-I/usr/include/SDL" to the include path list. That came from a line in the configure script where it blindly sets CFLAGS="-I $x_includes" and doesn't check whether $x_includes is empty. Hilarity ensues... Here's my patch to address that. Now, it really should fix configure.in, but I don't know autotools at all (except that I recognize m4 when I see it, from my sendmail days...). I'll leave that to whomever is more knowledgeable. But I believe this is a better fix than adjusting the #include directories in the source.

Also, the ebuild only applies the patch if it's on amd64... the first part, about the #include paths, affected x86 when I tried it. So that part needs to be split out anyway and applied probably on all arches.
Ok, this is an updated ebuild, applying your patch, Jason (named 0.6.6-sdlinclude.patch) anytime, and modifying loadparts.cpp only on amd64 Also, I changed oggvorbis for vorbis in the USE flags (since oggvorbis is now deprecated), is ogg USE flag also needed? It is only there to download and use some Ogg vorbis files in game.
Created attachment 58689 [details] Updated cannonsmash-0.6.6-r1.ebuild Use with the -I handling patch named as 0.6.6-sdlinclude.patch
the proper fix is to type case 0 to (size_t) added to portage
