this ebuild not only installs the binary version of mldonkey, but compiles it :) (ok doesn't make much sense because there are no opt. flags for the ocaml compiler )
Created attachment 5025 [details] ebuild
forgot to tell. its binaries are now in /usr/bin instead of /opt (mldonkey is fully gpl(-2?)
the binaries should be in /opt. the whole purpose of /opt in Gentoo Linux is for binary-only packages to be installed into.
sorry, i think my announcement was misguiding. all binaries are created from source. These created binaries are now in /usr/bin. Exactly for the reason mentioned in Comment #3. The gpl-remark is to point out, that there is no reason to use the binary-version. (mldonkey changed licence)
Dependencies for ocaml are not working. If ocaml is not installed the ebuild asks for downloading and installing it into the mldonkey directory.
what exactly do you mean? emerge --pretend --emptytree mldonkey gives me the following: [snip] [ebuild N ] dev-lang/ocaml-3.06 [ebuild N ] dev-ml/lablgl-0.98 [ebuild N ] dev-ml/lablgtk-1.2.5 [ebuild N ] net-p2p/mldonkey-2.00-r2 (your lablgl and lablgtk versions are probably different) or do you mean, that even though ocaml is installed mldonkey can't find it?
thanks for submission, i committed mldonkey-2.00-r1, which includes some more patches (to be really bleeding edge) ;). will close this.
