During scons configure pouetchess doesn't recognise my 64-bit cpu, and determines that it is i686 compatible. scons then says: "LibSDL headers are required for this program", even though they are present. config.log: Configure(confdir = .sconf_temp) scons: Configure: Checking for C header file SDL.h... .sconf_temp/conftest_0.c <- | |#include "SDL.h" | | gcc -o .sconf_temp/conftest_0.o -c -O1 -pipe -march=i686 -D_GNU_SOURCE=1 -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/include/SDL .sconf_temp/conftest_0.c .sconf_temp/conftest_0.c:1: error: CPU you selected does not support x86-64 instruction set scons: Configure: no Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge pouetchess on a 64-bit system Actual Results: Calculating dependencies... done! >>> Verifying ebuild Manifests... >>> Emerging (1 of 1) games-board/pouetchess-0.2.0-r1 to / * pouetchess_src_0.2.0.tar.gz RMD160 SHA1 SHA256 size ;-) ...

Created attachment 158909 [details, diff] Adds generic x86_64 support for pouetChess. (My first patch)
Ug. The code in there that tries to be cute and figure out the CXXFLAGS by looking at /proc/cpuinfo should be ditched althogether. The users' CXXFLAGS should just be used directly. I'd take a patch for that, but not more crap on top of the pile that's there already.
Actually, portage substitutes the CXXFLAGS after the configuration is complete. This was just the least intrusive method (i could think of) to make configuration successful. I guess i could write a patch which ditches the detection, but it would be a lot bigger..

resync and try it again without the silly cflags setting code being run.
Created attachment 160707 [details, diff] truncates 'cute' cpu detection It still won't obey my LDFLAGS, and it passes both CFLAGS & CXXFLAGS. I'm just not good enough to crack all of this. (I might've tried if SCons was fully documented.. --And I didn't just become a dad!) Please double-check, Mr. Bones.
