Steve, do you use gentoo at all? I was wondering if you or anyone else knew how I might merge these changes into an "ebuild".
It seems that from the bombed out vic install theres still a dir in /var/tmp/portage called vic with an ag-media directory in there.. would I patch there? or try to patch from the PORTDIR_OVERLAY where the original ebuilds are? Does anyone know who maintains the AG gentoo packages/ebuilds? Maybe we could get them to merge this in officially? from the /var/tmp/portage/vic-1.1.13/work I tried to run a patch -p1 < ~andrew/ag2.3-alsa-mbus-rtp-ssl.diff --dry-run and right off I get: The next patch would delete the file common/confdefs.h, which does not exist! among other things.. am I passing the correct paramter p level to patch or is this the wrong directory.. I went to look for a confdefs.h under common in the ag-media under this path and found none.. Any info is greatly appreciated.
