checking for i686-pc-linux-gnu-sdl-config... no configure: error: The sdl-config script is required for the "sdl" system !!! ERROR: The ebuild did not complete successfully. !!! Function econf, Line 10, Exitcode 1 !!! econf failed libsdl -- 1.2.4.20020601
When Portage runs the configure script, it passes the CHOST value with the --host= switch. In my case that is --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu. The configure script prefixes sdl-config with the --host alias. So it searches the path for i686-pc-linux-gnu-sdl-config instead of sdl-config. So - as a workaround until this is fixed - I got advancemame to merge by creating a symlink in /usr/bin: ln -s /usr/bin/sdl-config /usr/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu-sdl-config Just in case this is relevant I'm using GCC3.2-r1 with the flags: CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=athlon-tbird -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
The ebuild appears to work alright with the new version of advancemame that is out... The ebuild appears to be a pain to update... I'll try to get to it within the next couple days. Unless you want to take a stab at it Lee?
well i updated the ebuild and also added a patch since it looks for slang in the wrong place(i didnt add a dep cause i wasnt sure if slang will be allowed or not in final ebuild) note this isnt workign correctly for some reason(think its broken) configure doesnt detect stuff right majorly messed up needs work side from that everything else works it seems
Created attachment 5522 [details] advancemame-0.61.4.ebuild
Created attachment 5523 [details] advancemame-gentoo.diff
might want to look at bug #10537
Created attachment 5711 [details] updated advancemame-0.61.4.ebuild here is an updated ebuild of advancemame taking the configure part of the ebuild from bug #10537 seems to compile in sdl now which fixs my previous problem but it doesnt do anything for me but that might be user error(aka stupidity)
Reason is due to the --host flag being added to econf() portage function. This will be fixed in advancemame-0.62.0.
advancemame-0.62.0 commited.
I think I need to fix 0.61.1 while new svgalib is still bit shaky.
*** Bug 11592 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
i notice advancemame 0.62.2 is out out as is advancemenu 2.2.2
0.61.1 should be fixed from a few hours back. I changed the econf command to ./configure without the --host. Will add update for it when I get the time.
