Ebuild for GIT-Version

This is not a really clean version of an ebuild but it works. If someone knows it better please improve.

reworked ebuild with amd64 support

Here is totally reworked version, with amd64 support added. You will need to copy the pulseaudio libs from an x86 machine for pulseaudio support to work, at least until it is added to app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-soundlibs.

This should be completely working.

OSS support was broken in my original 2 versions, it should work fine now.

libflashsupport-9999.ebuild

Fix for building on x86, and cleanup.

[Comment 6 Jose Marino 2009-04-22 16:13:20 UTC]

Recently, the latest libflashsupport-9999.ebuild (from comment #5) stopped working for me. It seems it tries to run eautoreconf in the wrong directory:

$ cat /var/tmp/portage/www-plugins/libflashsupport-9999/temp/aclocal-13082.out
***** aclocal *****
***** aclocal
aclocal-1.10: `configure.ac' or `configure.in' is required

This patch fixes the issue for me.

Is this maybe caused by a bug in git.eclass?

Good news: This is not needed for www-plugins/adobe-flash-10 any more, so I'm closing this bug.  libflashsupport-1.2 is sticking around since we do still have an old flash-9 in the tree, for which this is still needed.

You should be able to use the pulseaudio plugin for alsa with flash-10 with no troubles, or so I'm told.

Reopening for consideration with bug #300294
