Bug 238354 – New ebuild for hoard memory allocator

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: CONFIRMED ---

[Description Tim Stoakes 2008-09-22 04:05:18 UTC]

hoard is an alternative memory allocator (malloc() implementation), see http://www.cs.umass.edu/~emery/hoard/index.html.

I've taken a stab at an ebuild for me that works on amd64. Note that this project uses shell scripts for building, and has strange file names. I'm not too savvy with ebuilds, so this is probably terrible style.

Reproducible: Always

See:

https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3445

Seems similar.

Also why is it that I can't find this ebuild when I do an esearch?

I see that http://ineluttabile.it/node/6 has created an overlay for Hoard in the past.

Sorry, I eventually discovered this:

http://gitorious.org/ineluctable-overlay/pages/Home

Which shows how to make use of the overlay which includes a hoard ebuild.
