Description Joe McCann (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-20 12:31:11 UTC
The binary age needs to be reset for gal to create the proper symlinks that evolution-2.0 looks for.

gal-2.2.1-binagefix.patch

small patch to reset binary age. Must run autoconf in src_unpack after
patching. People who have already merged gal will need to remerge it twice I
guess. Thats why the packages are p.masked though.
Comment 2 foser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-29 03:03:48 UTC
between 2.2.1 -> 2.2.2 they kept binary versioning steady, so given that this is only a problem for early p.mask testers I'm not gonna introduce the patch anymore. I think at this point it will cause more problems than it solves.

Thanks for the patch anyway.
