A closer look shows that the code tries to use the deprecated cuserid() function from glibc. That can be simulated by getpwuid(getuid()).

Created attachment 251951 [details, diff]
Fix things.

Here’s a patch that fixes the compile errors for me (gcc complained about L_cuserid and a custom getline() somewhere) and fixes runtime issues with heap corruption and a lack of 64-bit awareness in diglog.

It works well enough that I was able to load an example file, but given the issues I’ve seen so far, I would not trust it much. Still, it seems to run.

Two and a half years later...

Pacho this one's for you.

[Comment 6 Pacho Ramos 2012-10-09 18:11:16 UTC]

I have seen our version is really really old, but looking to:
http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~lazzaro/chipmunk/pickup/pickup.html

Looks the way it's now packaged has changed completely and probably ebuild will need a lot of work (looks like sources are splitted in various tarballs and we probably should split this ebuild also).

If nobody volunteers to do such work, this will be treecleaner
