Oops, didn't paste the URL of the directory I mentioned in my original comment: https://boinc.berkeley.edu/dl/ I can confirm that current stable release (boinc-7.2.33) built from source with previous ebuild works fine. My local overlay link: https://github.com/ChaosEngine/portage/tree/c2c3b109380f3a34903bcb092792f90f15007bb5/sci-misc/boinc creation of snaphot package: $ git clone git://boinc.berkeley.edu/boinc-v2.git boinc-7.2.33 $ cd boinc-7.2.33/ $ git checkout client_release/7.2/7.2.33; git status $ cd .. $ tar -c --xz -f boinc-7.2.33.tar.xz boinc-7.2.33/ ChaosEngine's ebuild does the job. Tested with WCG and POEM. I've also deleted some data from the boinc source (.git, win*, android*, mac*) to keep the source small. Just working :) The BOINC download page shows 7.2.33 while the directory has 7.2.38. If comment #2 and comment #3 say it works fine, why is 7.2.0 still the last version in tree?

boinc-7.2.39.ebuild
New stable (?) boinc has appeared on http://boinc.berkeley.edu/download.php page. Version 7.2.39. So I've prepared ebuild accordingly (attachment https://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=370470). The bin package is made using following scheme: $ git clone git://boinc.berkeley.edu/boinc-v2.git boinc-7.2.39 $ cd boinc-7.2.39/ $ git checkout client_release/7.2/7.2.39; git status $ rm -rf .git win* android* mac* $ cd .. $ tar -c --xz -f boinc-7.2.39.tar.xz boinc-7.2.39/ For me it works.

ebuild patch
changes to in-tree:
- pin gtk include adding to "use X" as the includes are useless in a client-only build
- fix patch name, still applies
generated using ${FILESDIR}/generate_tarball.sh -v 7.2.42

I can't believe the tree is stuck on 7.2.0: how old is that version? 2 years? And my (this) bug report on 7.2.28 is almost a year old, when working ebuilds have been attached for 6-7 months: come on! Just put 7.2.42 in tree, it's surely most stable than 7.2.0. Created attachment 388538 [details]
sci-misc/boinc-7.2.42.ebuild using git checkout
I have added this ebuild to my overlay ("seden" via layman") with the following changes:
- Applied fixes from the patch provided by Robert Förster.
- Re-added boincscr, so I can try how to get it running.
- The sources are fetched using Michał Górnys awesom git-r3.eclass
- Due to this usage, boinc depends on git, but the sources no longer need to be packaged and updates should be fetched quite fast.
- The initial fetch takes some time of course.
What I did not find yout, yet, is how to start clientmgr as a regular user. There is something awry I haven't figured yout, yet.
Further I have only started to test boincscr. Currently the preview in xscreensaver fails with:
------------
(xscreensaver-demo:7567): libglade-WARNING **: Could not load support for `gnome': libgnome.so: Kann die Shared-Object-Datei nicht öffnen: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
chdir: No such file or directory
---------
I'll see whether I can find out what is going on there.
If you want to test it, you have to add:
GL: boincscr -root \n\
to your ~/.xscreensaver file for it to show up.

If someone wants to attach an ebuild for 7.4.x, I'll gladly test it as soon as that branch becomes stable on Linux too. I'd try the one I'm currently using for 7.2.42 just changing the version numbers, but I don't know if there have been any changes in dependencies or something else since 7.2.x. Version 7.4.22 compiles and works ok with previous verion but not fully. Only CLI worker. I could not compile GUI client binary; it may be related to newer x11-libs/wxGTK-3.* requirement. I'll try to tackle with it a little more. Created attachment 395050 [details]
Proposed ebuild for version 7.4.36
Works for me with dependency x11-libs/wxGTK-3.0.2.0
and USE='X' (all client and GUI packages builing).
Tested 7.4.36 ebuild on ~amd64. Been using for a week now appears to work fine except the source points to a bad d/l url at dev.gentoo.org and I had to modify the workdir to match the svn checkout I pulled instead. Got Chaos Engine's 7.4.36 ebuild compiling and working on amd64.
As Chad A. Simmons already noted on #17, the d/l is not working anymore. I've used the provided generate_tarball.sh script but had to comment the rm-lines beginning with line 64.
Beeing on amd64, I also had to keyword x11-libs/wxGTK:3 and set some useflag:
>=x11-libs/wxGTK-3.0.2.0-r1 webkit (yeah, should be by slot ..)
It's working but I'm not really happy about this webkit useflag. It's pulling in webkit-gtk, which needs really a lot of time to compile .. I've not tried to get rid of it yet, but I may look at this next weekend ..

boinc-7.4.42.ebuild
I've used Sven Eden's git ebuild with version bump and wxGTK-related adjustments for boinc 7.4.42. Works great thus far.

Works great thus far. Successfully compiled 7.4.42 on amd64 a few days ago and it's been working great since then. I really can't understand how a package like this is stuck since Dec 2013, with working ebuilds "flowing" like this since before then... Fell free to send a pull request to the portage mirror next time [1]. This is sometimes more obvious and problems with the attached ebuilds can be easier discussed. I fixed some smaller issues I had with the 7.4.42 ebuild (wxGTK[webkit] does not exist for ia64 and sparc) and created a pull request [2]. [1] https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo-portage-rsync-mirror [2] https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo-portage-rsync-mirror/pull/135 I have managed to get all of BOINC working with Sven Eden's ebuilds and a few other fixes: 1. Make the BOINC user (boinc) a real user and make the home dir be wherever to work files will be (I moved it to /home/boinc manually). [There is a local USE flag on mail-filter/dspam "user-homedirs, add it here also?] 2. Add user boinc to the vboxusers group if VirtualBox is installed on the system. This allows the system to run projects VirtualLHC and ATLAS from CERN. (Should there be a virtualbox USE flag?) After 27 July 2015, source code use github, so the ebuild should use: EGIT_REPO_URI="https://github.com/BOINC/boinc.git" Compilation fails on my system. Maybe due to a source syntax error. +*boinc-7.4.42 (04 Aug 2015) + + 04 Aug 2015; Michał Górny <mgorny@gentoo.org> +boinc-7.4.42.ebuild, + boinc-7.2.0-r1.ebuild, boinc-7.2.0.ebuild: + Version bump with minor fixes. https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo-portage-rsync- + mirror/pull/135 by marbre. unlike previous versions this version of the boinc ebuild does not seem to install the boinc manager gui. This is with the X and cuda useflags as before. It does install boincmgr-boinc.desktop which is not so useful without the boingmgr executable. |
