[gentoo-user] trying to make an ebuild

[Noud Aldenhoven]

Hello,

I'm not sure in which mailing list this one belongs, so I hope I
picked the right one.

I was trying to make an ebuild for a small MUD client (tinyfugue). But
it doesn't seem to work correct. When I try to compile it I get an
ACCESS VIOLATION SUMMARY ERROR from sandbox because I tried to access
/usr/bin.

ACCESS DENIED  open_wr:   /usr/bin/tf

Could someone tell my how I can give my ebuild the rights to access
/usr/bin? The script looks like this one:

=
# Copyright 1999-2005 Gentoo Foundation
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
# $Header: $

DESCRIPTION="Programmable MUD client"
HOMEPAGE="http://tinyfugue.sourceforge.net/";
SRC_URI="http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/tinyfugue/tf-50b8.tar.gz";

S=${WORKDIR}/tf-50b8

LICENSE="GNU"
SLOT="D"
KEYWORDS="~x86 ~amd64"
IUSE=""

src_compile() {
econf || die "econf failed"
emake || die "emake failed"
}

src_install() {
emake DESTDIR="${D}" install || die "install failed"
dodoc README
}
===

And my second question; would it be able if this script become safe to
submit it to the gentoo portage list?

Thank you,

Noud

Re: [gentoo-user] The big clean up

Thank you all,

This seems to work pretty good. I reemerged and unmerged most things
using emerge --depclean and rebuild it with revdep-rebuild.
Ran prelink, but I thought it didn't show up some forgotten links.

Looks like this system is pretty clean again.

Thank you!

Noud

Perhaps a stupid remark, but most laptops are supported with a
wireless hardware on/off button.
Your wireless adapter will be shut down for sure then.

[gentoo-user] The big clean up

[Noud Aldenhoven]

Hello,

I have gentoo running on this laptop for over a year now and I'm quite
happy with it. But I have the feeling I emerged to many programs, made
to many logs, have sources everywere... to sum it up: it's a small
mess.
I'd really like to clean things up, order most of the files and remove
packages which aren't important anymore.

But what would be the best stategy to do this? Of course, I could
start somewhere and work down and down and down... until I have
deleted most unused packages, removed all sources and ordered the
rest. But is there a good strategy I could stick to? Or perhaps a
guildline how to order my pc?

Thank you,

Noud Aldenhoven
