[gentoo-portage-dev] [PATCH] install-qa-check.d/10ignored-flags: fix LDFLAGS check (bug 455232)

[Zac Medico]

From: Felix Janda 

Since binutils-2.23.51.0.9+ defaults to hash-style=gnu, use
a __gentoo_check_ldflags__ symbol instead. The check is now
enabled by adding "-Wl,--defsym=__gentoo_check_ldflags__=0"
to LDFLAGS. The symbol will be automatically removed when
the binary is stripped.

Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/455232
Closes: https://github.com/gentoo/portage/pull/220

[gentoo-dev] git checkout in ebuild?

[Damo Brisbane]

Hello,

I am wanting to make an ebuild for Intel's (Apache 2 licensed) snap
monitoring framework (https://github.com/intelsdi-x/snap). It seems the
current version (2.0.0) does not compile the golang binaries with some type
of recent grpc API incompatibility. I can successfully compile by going:

go get ...
cd 
git checkout 1.3.0
make all

This gets me the binaries (snaptel, snapteld); does anyone know if I can
put this process (git checkout..) into an .ebuild file (or some other
suggestion)?

Cheers,

I like the first option.

[gentoo-dev] Packages up for grabs: x11-plugins/pidgin-mbpurple

[Jonas Stein]

Dear all,

The following packages are up for grabs:

x11-plugins/pidgin-mbpurple

after retirement of the proxied maintainer.

https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/x11-plugins/pidgin-mbpurple

The EAPI=2 ebuild has very bad quality.
I can not test, if it is still usable at all, but I doubt that a 8 year
old Pidgin->Twitter gateway still works.

Best,
