gens amd64 and menu entry patch

I have successfully modified the gens ebuild to build a 32-bit binary on amd64. It is based on portage gens with changed taken from the v-fox overlay.

Also see bug 354411.

I also added a menu entry, make_desktop_entry at the bottom (which should be applied even if my 64 bit changes are rejected)

No response, cc back us if you need a double-check

Comment 3 haarp 2013-05-19 06:28:26 UTC

amd64 compilation recently broke again. configure complains about
'conftest.c(12): catastrophic error: cannot open source file "gtk/gtk.h"'

I have no idea why or how to fix it, though...

Comment 4 Michał Ziąbkowski 2015-01-25 17:19:58 UTC

What worked for me was commenting out the line with multilib_toolchain_setup and appending -m32 to CFLAGS. A bit ugly, but it makes the error go away.

That's roughly what multilib_toolchain_setup is doing, too. I tried your way, but unfortunately it bails out aswell:

checking for GTK+ - version >= 2.4.0... 
*** 'pkg-config --modversion gtk+-2.0' returned 2.24.25, but GTK+ (2.24.23)
*** was found! If pkg-config was correct, then it is best
*** to remove the old version of GTK+. You may also be able to fix the error
*** by modifying your LD_LIBRARY_PATH enviroment variable, or by editing
*** /etc/ld.so.conf. Make sure you have run ldconfig if that is
*** required on your system.
*** If pkg-config was wrong, set the environment variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH
*** to point to the correct configuration files
no
configure: error: *** GTK+ version 2.4.0 not found!

Here is cronolio's ebuild updated with pax-markings to make it work on my hardened system.

Works pretty fine for me.

Comment 9 haarp 2016-09-11 09:45:46 UTC

At this point I would actually suggest to deprecate gens in favor of gens-gs, which works fine on amd64. There are some overlays which carry it.

Comment 10 Raymond Jennings 2016-09-11 12:26:49 UTC

I dunno...I'm not really in favor of deprecating stuff just because it appears in an overlay.
