The missing tilde before arm is a plain error. I tested on x86. I do not have the opportunity to test the ebuild on the other architectures. I tried to merge, unmerge and I run the program to test that it actually works. I did not find in the documentation the list of supported architectures. As far as I can guess I suppose it will work. It is not enough to prepend the names with tilde? > Don't emake and econf both fail if they fail, making || die "" > unnecessary and even impossible? Sorry, I do not understand your question. I think 'die' is also to give a better error reporting here. Anyway my src_compile() follows the example in 'man 5 ebuild'. > There's no ChangeLog in the directory. Ah!
