Bug 339995 – app-text/htp-1.16: doesn't compile on amd64 (with possible fix)

• Status: CONFIRMED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description James Cline 2010-10-06 23:50:11 UTC]

emerge app-text/htp fails on amd64.

Similarly, downloading the source and compiling it with make fails.




Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add "app-text/htp **" to /etc/portage/package.keywords
2. emerge app-text/htp

Actual Results:  
It fails to build and install.

Expected Results:  
Built and installed.

Relevant bug I filed on sourceforge: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3082574&group_id=41382&atid=430444

Same here - did you resolve it already?

I apologize - I first should have read and tried the solution you proposed :-/
I made a new patch-file and modified the ebuild and everything installs just fine. I also tested the new ebuild with patch on a x86 system and it compiled and works as far as I can say ...

Just in case you want to try that as well I'll attach both the modified ebuild + patch.
