The only ebuild for app-pda/libopensyc-plugin-synce works against app-pda/synce-librra-0.13, but fails to compile against app-pda/synce-librra-0.14 due to a change in the API. (Add your witty/sad remark about synce/opensync/world incompatibility here) This has been fixed "upstream", meaning that the SynCE team has released an updated version of libopensync-plugin-synce (0.22.1 [1]) at the time of their release of 0.14 I still haven't tried to build it on my system, but I hope that it's just a matter of changing the SRC uri in the ebuild. [1] http://sourceforge.net/projects/synce/files/SynCE/0.14/libopensync-plugin-synce-rra-0.22.1.tar.gz/download Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. keyword app-pda/synce packages 2. mask app-pda/opensync packages >= 0.30 (upstream "unstable") 3. emerge app-pda/libopensync-plugin-synce
Excuse me, I forgot to add what I suggest to do: 1. Modify the ebuild for app-pda/libopensync-plugin-synce-0.22-r1 to strictly depend on <app-pda/synce-librra-0.14, to avoid a compilation failure. 2. Make a new ebuild app-pda/libopensync-plugin-synce-0.22.1 where SRC_URI points to the SynCE source package, to support synce-0.14 packages.
Created attachment 216536 [details] Proposed new ebuild (may require QA-checking)
Created attachment 216537 [details, diff] Required patch in files dir The current warning patch does not work with the new source from the synce team. This is a fixed version.
I wrote an ebuild as per point 2. of comment #1; I tested it on my system (x86, mostly stable except for synce and opensync, as expected) and it compiles fine. msynctool recognizes the plugin and adds it to a group w/ success. (actual sync-ing still doesn't work, but it may be a misconfiguration on my part). It may require some QA check, I'm not your local ebuild expert.
