For  1710 version with cam support, 

[b]
NativeLibs-linux.zip must be unpacked under /opt/mercury-bin/jni/linux/jmf/
VidConf-libs.jar must be copied in /opt/mercury-bin/lib
JavaLibs-linux.jar must be copied in /opt/mercury-bin/lib
(/opt/mercury-bin/lib and /opt/mercury-bin/jni/linux/jmf must be created)

/opt/bin/mercury must be modified :

[quote]
#!/bin/bash
MERCURY_INSTALL_PATH="/opt/mercury-bin"
SHARE_DIR="/usr/share/mercury-bin"
# OPTIONS="-Djava.library.path=$(java-config -i jdictrayapi)"
OPTIONS="-Djava.library.path=$MERCURY_INSTALL_PATH/jni/linux/jmf"
CLASSPATH=$(java-config -p jdom-1.0,xpp3,jgoodies-looks-1.3)

for file in $(ls $SHARE_DIR/lib)
do
        CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:$SHARE_DIR/lib/$file
done
for file in $(ls $MERCURY_INSTALL_PATH/lib)
do
        CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:$MERCURY_INSTALL_PATH/lib/$file
done

cd ${MERCURY_INSTALL_PATH}
java $OPTIONS -classpath $CLASSPATH com.dMSN.Main
[/quote]

[/b]

Here is the result :
[quote]
VidConf-libs.jar file found.: Passed
VidConf-libs.jar in classpath: Passed  
JavaLibs-linux.jar file found: Passed
JavaLibs-linux.jar in classpath.: Passed  
Native library files for Linux found: Passed
[/quote]

And cam works :-)

All files should be located in /opt/mercury-bin/ in my opinion

I talked with upstream and there are some changes in the way.

About what is in portage now:
I tried to make this something that worked. And that worked in any arch, not just x86. I dont know if the cam settings would work in other arches (have serious doubts :) )

If someone uncoments my changes to dllStuff.jar in the ebuild he/she will notice that mercury stops working (dont know why).
Lots of work needs to be done... Lets all pester dany so that we opens the source to this nice software.

Why is this not solved yet?
Comment 8 luminoso 2007-06-13 11:28:12 UTC
because 1710 is a to old package.
You should upgrade to 1.9RC5 or to 1.8
Comment 9 Serkan Kaba (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-01-05 06:56:15 UTC
Can we close this as the package doesn't exist in tree anymore?
Comment 10 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2012-03-19 12:46:12 UTC
This was dropped time ago
