Bug 220899 – app-arch/lzma-utils: make need for C++ optional

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ulrich Müller 2008-05-08 11:37:37 UTC]

Following the recent discussion in -dev, here is an ebuild and a patch to disable all pieces that require C++ support.

Tested with:
   tar --use-compress-program=/usr/bin/lzmadec -tvf coreutils-6.11.tar.lzma
   lzmadec <coreutils-6.11.tar.lzma | tar -tvf -

you cant run autotools in lzma-utils, so i posted a patch containing the generated differences

i also added a wrapper script "lzma" so that packages doing `lzma -dc` will still work (like portage)

thanks for the patch, in the tree

Hm, also support for "lzma -d" would be useful since tar calls it like this.

   elif [ "$1" = "-d" ] ; then
          lzmadec

(Or maybe cleaner to convert to a case statement.)
