phosphan, looks like you're the maintainer, please add a metadata.xml file reflecting that

[Comment 3 Patrick Kursawe (RETIRED) 2004-07-02 08:34:21 UTC]

Well, I don't consider myself the maintainer just because I did one version bump and one bugfix, but this obviously fits for the sci herd.

However, this beast needs some patching to survive gcc 3.4...

In portage - thanks!

[Comment 5 Hypnos 2004-07-08 16:32:27 UTC]

I missed something in my Python support -- /usr/lib/root must be in the PYTHONPATH.  So src_install should be changed from 

---------------
src_install() {
	make DESTDIR=${D} INSTALL="install" install || die "install failed"
	dodir /etc/env.d
	echo > ${D}/etc/env.d/99root "LDPATH=\"/usr/lib/root\""
}
----------------

to

-----------------
src_install() {
	make DESTDIR=${D} INSTALL="install" install || die "install failed"
	dodir /etc/env.d
	echo > ${D}/etc/env.d/99root "LDPATH=\"/usr/lib/root\""
	if [ `use python` ]; then
		echo "PYTHONPATH=\"/usr/lib/root\"" >> ${D}/etc/env.d/99root
	fi
}
-----------------

I am attaching an ebuild with this revision.

[Comment 7 Patrick Kursawe (RETIRED) 2004-07-14 00:05:27 UTC]

Perhaps it would be better to put the python stuff into site-packages instead of tweaking PYTHONPATH if that's possible. Assigning to the sci herd because I currently don't have much time.

[Comment 8 Hypnos 2004-07-14 04:20:21 UTC]

Well, that would be a little hackish and the ebuild already had tweaks to LDPATH.

ROOT is a bit of a beast, so there's no perfectly clean way to install into a FHS-compliant tree until ROOT starts using autotools (or equivalent).

[Comment 9 Hypnos 2004-07-16 14:53:26 UTC]

attached subsequently is an ebuild for v4.00.08, the first 4.x release declared ready for "production" use.  Changes from v4.00.06a:

- Version bump
- Ruby bindings in addition to Python bindings (keyed to USE words)

Has passed my research group's (icecube.wisc.edu) build acid test ....

I should add that the gcc-3.4 patch should no longer be necessary, but that
should be tested by someone running gcc-3.4 ...

Corrected a bug in SRC_URI of root-4.00.08.ebuild, and added a possibility for
inclusion
of cernlib (which ebuild is in bug #65677), and thus a new USE flag. Is this
the right way?

root-4.02.00 now in Portage.
