Bug 43060 – missing mobile mesh support in gentoo

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

[Description Thomas Wimmer 2004-02-26 20:53:26 UTC]

i was wondering, why mobile mesh is completely unknown to gentoo.
http://www.mitre.org/work/tech_transfer/mobilemesh/

and of course, i wasnt skilled enough to compile it myself:
(1.4rc4,gentoo-dev-kernel 2.6.2,gcc 3.3.3 )# make depends
g++ -M -g -Wall -I. -Iinclude-fixes -D_GNU_SOURCE *.C > depends.mk

make: *** [depends] Error 1

installing "STLport" and even gcc recompiling did not help :(

i think MM is great!

it would be wonderfull to me and some friends, if there where a ebuild ;)
gentoo rocks ! you all are doing a great job !

[Comment 1 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) 2004-02-27 00:56:26 UTC]

maybe because no one has written an ebuild for it

[Comment 2 Peter Johanson (RETIRED) 2004-02-27 09:35:23 UTC]

There's prolly no ebuild yet, cause the source is a mess, and needs lots of fixes to the header includes. It's fixable, but a bit of mess.

[Comment 3 Doug Goldstein (RETIRED) 2004-09-22 09:33:07 UTC]

As per the developers site... Mobile Mesh is built for the 2.2.x kernel series and they say it has little hope of working on 2.3.x... Sounds to me that this needs to be closed out since Gentoo never really supported the 2.2.x series and now defintely does not since we're moving towards 2.6.x. If you still want this in Portage, Tom. Write an ebuild for it that'll work with 2.4 and 2.6, otherwise. It's closed.
