[gentoo-dev] Help needed with new ORBit/gnome-applets ebuild

[Edward Muller]

I put together some slightly newer ebuilds for ORBit, oaf ,bonobo. The
main motivation beign that they were supposed to fix a bug in that I was
having in evolution (according to the evolution mailing list anway).
Well they fixed the bug ... but ...

I also started looking into what other gnome software hasn't been
updated so I started updating the ebuilds for those .... until ...

I ran across the gnome-applets ebuild...

My current ebuild dies compiling with the following error:

make[1]: Entering directory

make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1


So I took a look ... and /usr/include/alloca.h defines alloca as ...

define alloca(size)   __builtin_alloca (size)

and /usr/include/orbit-1.0/ORBitutil/os-feature-alloca.h defines alloca
as ...

define alloca __builtin_alloca

This can't be right? Should I patch and re-build orbit with the correct
defs as a work around? Should I bring this up on the orbit list?

Sorry if the questions are pretty basic (C wise) but I don't do much C
stuff (but I'm trying to learn ... hence the question).

Should be in a future ORBit. I'll post ebuilds when I'm done testing my
packages ... ORBit, oaf, bonobo, gnome-applets and a few others.
