Bug 528010 – net-wireless/dump1090 should install HTML files for embedded webserver

• Status: UNCONFIRMED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description jannis 2014-11-02 13:03:57 UTC]

The current ebuild of dump1090 in tree only installs the binary. This makes the embedded webserver unusable since the needed HTML and JS files are missing. The patch installs them into /usr/share/${PN} and adds the "PREFIX"-argument to emake so that the binary knows where to find them (see dump1090's Makefile)

Reproducible: Always

Oh, and the patch also uses another git repo/fork that is more active/up to date

There is an issue with the current -9999 version.

The gmap.html is installed under /usr/share/dump1090/html/gmap.html

while the current patch will expect /usr/share/dump1090/gmap.html

is there a good reason to steal the public_html folder of the user for this purpose ?

That's quite funny. dump1090-4.0 (currently the only version in tree, except 9999) seems to include all relevant web server files but I can no longer find a CLI switch to active the integrated web server :(
