Bug 325927 – games-strategy/xscorch has a new GTK2-compatible version available

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

[Description Markus Saarinen 2010-06-28 04:52:06 UTC]

As the summary says, latest xscorch now supports GTK2. Since the current version in tree is hardmasked due to the GTK1 dependency, could we have the latest GTK2 version as a ~ package to the tree?

Reproducible: Always

Test ebuild for xscorch-0.2.1-pre2 (with GTK2 support)

Here's my attempt. It fetches, unpacks, configures, and attempts to build. Final linking of the xscorch executable fails, but that's something that probably needs debugging outside of the ebuild.

New ebuild for xscorch-0.2.1-pre2 that applies some necessary patches for >=gtk+-2.20

This is my second try, which actually builds xscorch 0.2.1-pre2. I had to add the following patches:

xscorch-0.2.1_pre2-as-needed.patch
xscorch-0.2.1_pre2-gtk-2.20-deprecated.patch

Patch to fix final linking

This is based on an earlier patch from xscorch 0.2.0 that rearranges linking order to succeed.
