Bug 220767 – ebuild for dev-libs/dbus-c++

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Matteo 'The Peach' Pescarin 2008-05-07 15:00:50 UTC]

deb-libs/dbus-cpp is outdated and no longer mantained as stated here: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/DBusBindings.
This is the new c++ bindings for dbus.
Unfortunately there's no ufficial release/snapshot for this package.

New version of Linkage is based on this and the only solution is 1) use this ebuild that fetches the git repo 2) install fedora or a debian based distro. choose wisely ;)

NOTE: Remember that you need to enable "glib" USE flag when compiling this package for Linkage.

work's on my amd64 gentoo linux systems (opteron and athlon64 3200+)

[Comment 3 Vasiliy Tolstov 2008-05-20 16:27:14 UTC]

may be write to author of linkage to use libdbus, because this is better solution ?

Hello, I've updated ebuild: change license (LGPL-2.1) and add doc use-flag.

There is a fork at http://gitorious.org/dbus-cplusplus.
If you change EGIT_REPO_URI to git://gitorious.org/dbus-cplusplus/mainline.git it builds just fine with Andrey's ebuild.
This ebuild in turn works just fine with GNote

BTW, I did not find "linkage" in the portage tree, so I just paste the link here to make it convenient look. :-)

Is this the same as dev-libs/dbus-c++ in gx86?

This seems to be in tree now.
