THANKS! For the one-of shortcut - easy to understand for this newbie.
Good News 1. The shortcut process worked great - and it helped me
understand how emerge works.
Good News 2. The "Fix" worked. Screensaver no longer killed by SSP.
Bad News! The "patch" didn't work. The first "heap" worked fine; the
second "heap" failed. (Would be nice if patch would show the text that it
found at the line it was told match.) At any rate, I used an editor to
delete the line (that patch didn't find in heap 2) - so the logic of the
fix worked great.
I can post the above (not GN 1 :-) ) on the bug page if you wish.... but
given that I'm a newbie, I'm reluctant.
Question: IIUC, this is a compiler bug!? If yes, has it been fixed in the
new gcc (I went to the gcc change log and saw no mention of it)?
Thanks again for you generous and high-quality help!
An easier way to do it as a one-off process is to:
first save Andre's patch from bug #133301 to somewhere
# ebuild /usr/portage/x11-libs/qt/qt-3.3.6-r1.ebuild unpack
# cd /var/tmp/portage/qt-3.3.6-r1/work/qt-x11-free-3.3.6
# patch -p1 < [patch saved from bug]
# cd
# ebuild /usr/portage/x11-libs/qt/qt-3.3.6-r1.ebuild merge
just note that if you emerge qt-3.3.6-r1 again later, the change will
be lost - but you're not likely to do that soon.
