FreeNX v0.4.2 ebuild

This is the new version of FreeNX. It's is not on the homepage yet, but it has
been available since the 17th of July. It is official, though. Kinda strange
that they haven't updated the homepage yet, but the mirror has it.

You might want to change the location of the source tar balls to  
http://download.berlios.de/freenx/freenx-${PV}.tar.gz. This seems to be the  
official source now. Available project files are shown on 
http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2978

I have a modified nx-x11 ebuild that compiles on amd64, but I'm still debugging
why it does not work.  This clears all compile errors.  Oh and I had to link
/usr/NX/lib to /usr/NX/lib64 (this should be in the ebuild also, but I'm trying
to debug).  Basically I added this in unpack():

        cd ${S} # already in ebuild
        if use amd64 ; then
                sed -i  -e "s/# elif defined(__ia64__)/# elif defined(__ia64__)
|| defined(__x86_64)/" \
                        lib/X11/XlcDL.c

                cd ${S}/../nxcomp
                sed -i  -e "s/-Wall -Wpointer-arith/-Wall -Wpointer-arith -fPIC/
" \
                        Makefile.in

                cd ${S}/../nxcompext
                sed -i  -e "s/-Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs/-Wmissing-
declarations -Wnested-externs -fPIC/" \
                        Makefile.in

                cd ${S}
        fi

If the white space is messing up, I can post my modified ebuild.

Also, please get in touch with me if you want to discuss debugging.

Closing bug, now that we have NX 1.5 in the Portage tree.

Please use bug 119408 for all work required to get freenx working on AMD64.
