Mongodb 2.0.0 was released on Sept 12, 2011. We should have an official mongo-2.0.0 ebuild in portage. Reproducible: Always
Hello and thanks for the bug report. We're waiting for https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-3829 and possibly https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-3827. See http://groups.google.com/group/mongodb-dev/browse_thread/thread/38e8c30606a300c3 for relevant discussion.
Created attachment 288879 [details] dev-db/mongodb-2.0.0.ebuild In the interim, here is a mongodb-2.0.0.ebuild that seems to work, although it does not build the shared library due to some linker errors that I haven't had time to debug.
Created attachment 288881 [details, diff] mongodb-2.0-fix-scons.patch This patch is strongly suggested if using the ebuild I posted.
Hi Mark, Thank you for this bug and proposed patches, as Johan mentioned we'd had a discussion with upstream about this matter and they plan to fix this (soon I hope). Meanwhile, I'm against pushing such an ebuild in tree for all the reasons described in the discussion. Rest assured that we'll bump to 2.x quickly when it's fixed by upstream. Cheers
