Bug 87322 – gmemusage (new ebuild)

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

[Description Federico Ferri (RETIRED) 2005-03-30 12:48:26 UTC]

Gmemusage is a small X application written by Raju Mathur, which displays the relative proportions of memory in use by running processes.
He has been attempting to emulate a monitor (also called gmemusage) which is used on Silicon Graphics workstations.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
# make
(maybe you have to fix util.c, adding a #include <string.h> on top of the file)

Apply this patch if source doesn't compile

Here are the changes i made.

WARNING: i added a pair of strdup(str); ... free(str_); because of a
const/notconst compiling issue. sorry for the dirty work, but i can't do better
:p

A unified diff of the above two issues.

This gets a clean compile here.  (ebuild coming)

The ebuild

This builds and runs cleanly on ~amd64.  It still needs a proper digest with
md5s coming from the author.

An updated ebuild.

This is an updated ebuild that works on AMD64 and installs and runs on x86 but
won't display due to a lack of opengl support in the ancient Pentium II that I
tested it on.  Following is the emerge --info for the two machines.

Please, put the version into attachment description...

gmemusage-0.2.ebuild

This is an updated ebuild, well the description is any way, for the gmemusage
package.  Jakub requested that but he also crossed out the emerge --info
attachments in comments 5 & 6 and I don't know what he wants instead.  Anyway,
here goes.

Ok, here's a nice diff breakdown: 
 
-RDEPEND="virtual/x11 
-       virtual/opengl" 
+RDEPEND="media-libs/glut 
+               virtual/x11 
+               virtual/opengl" 
 
media-libs/glut is needed or it doesn't compile. 
 
 src_unpack() { 
        unpack ${A} 
+       cd "${S}" 
        epatch ${FILESDIR}/${P}-gentoo.patch || die "patch failed" 
 
the current working directory of unpack isn't ${S}, so we need to be in there. 
 
+ 
+       # custom cflags... 
+       # multi-lib fix... 
+       sed -i \ 
+               -e "s:^CFLAGS.*:CFLAGS = ${CFLAGS} -DLINUX:g" \ 
+               -e "s:^LIBS    =  -L/usr/X11R6/lib:LIBS = 
-L/usr/X11R6/$(get_libdir):g" \ 
+               Makefile || die "sed-ing failed" 
 
Some fixes here for custom CFLAGS and $(get_libdir)'ed library directory.

don't need COPYING

Last release is from 1999 and while it builds with warnings using patch attached, it doesn't function properly (only draws a black box to left, nothing like what is shown in screenshot at upstream page)
