Bug 333769 – www-plugins/google-talkplugin new ebuild

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 333579
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Christoph Junghans (RETIRED) 2010-08-21 09:43:34 UTC]

I have waited for linux support for more than 2 years and then they release it as a deb package ;-)

Anyway, here is the first attempt of an ebuild:
<http://code.google.com/p/cj-overlay/source/browse/www-plugins/google-talkplugin/google-talkplugin-1.4.1.0.1.ebuild>

Things to fix:
-License - I didn't find it
-Depends - Are there some missing?

Comments please!

Here is mine ebuild, works on amd64, didn't test it on x86. What I can see your ebuild also installs libCg and libCgGl but we have nvidia-cg-toolkit in portage.

I've used the ebuild but still Gmail says "Please download the voice plugin to make a call".

I'm using firefox 32bit and the plugin is not installed in it..
when I browse to "about:plugins" no plugin for Google Voice is installed.

[Comment 5 Saleh Alsanad 2010-08-27 19:51:17 UTC]

I've even set symlinks to the plugins folder but seems like firefox does not detect google-talkplugin plugin

(symlinks to GoogleTalkPlugin  libnpgoogletalk64.so  libnpgtpo3dautoplugin.so)

please report problems to bug #333579!

64bit plugins will not work in 32bit firefox that is clear.

I have no amd64 machine, so how do you install a 32bit firefox on amd64?
Will the problem be solve after adding multilib support in the same fashion as for flash plugin?

... unless you use nspluginviewer:
nspluginviewer -a -i /usr/lib32/nsbrowser/plugins/...

(There is some eclass which can do it automatically, see www-plugins/adobe-flash)

Well, nspluginwrapper allows 32bit plugins in 64bit browsers, but not the other way around. Or am I wrong?

No, there is no eclass. As I said am working on multilib support, but it is not finished yet.

I have added multilib support, but it is not tested very carefully due to a lack of a own amd64 machine.

cj-overlay is now in layman's overlay list, that makes the ebuild easier to use.

Sorry I wanted to say that it works fine in AMD64
