[gentoo-dev] Bug in e2fsprogs

[Joerg Krause]

Hi,

in the e2fsprog-1.25.ebuild is a small bug. The package will be
configured with --prefix=/usr but if someone has an extra /usr 
partition (like me), efsck won't work at boot time.

On every system boot I'll receive a message for an unresolved
libext2fs.so (which resides in /usr/lib).

Thanks for the bug report.  I'll get this fixed asap; it turns out that
/sbin/fsck is getting dynamically linked, while /sbin/fsck.ext[23] are
statically linked.  I'll get /sbin/fsck statically linked asap.

[gentoo-dev] Evolution Pilot Conduit

[Nicholas Burlett]

I'm using Gentoo R6, and I have USE set to use pda, but evolution won't
compile with the gnome-pilot conduit. Here is the error in the
configure:


[snip]
checking for gnome-config... (cached) /usr/bin/gnome-config
checking for gnome-pilot environment... yes
checking for existance of /usr/lib/libpisock.so... yes
checking for pilot-link version >= 0.9.5... yes (found 0.9.6-cvs)
checking if pilot-link handles UTF-8 conversions... no
configure: error: evolution requires pilot-link to have working UTF-8
conversion routines

!!! ERROR: The ebuild did not complete successfully.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 36, Exitcode 1
!!! (no error message)


This is only after copying a bunch of headers from
/usr/include/libpisock to /usr/include so that the line "checking for
pilot-link version >= 0.9.5... yes (found 0.9.6-cvs)" would work. I'm
not sure how to fix this next one. Could someone point me in the right
direction? 

Thanks,
Nick

Hi!

I've noticed this too, not sure what's causing it though, will look into
it (it's still there in Evolution 1.0).

Hi!

I couldn't sleep tonight due to having a cold so I decided to fix this.
Evolution 1.0-r1 is available and works very fine (now it can handle non
ascii-7 signs such as åäö, yay!)

If anyone is interested it was pilot-link that had a broken
configure-script causing it not to build with iconv support. :)

Regards and sorry for the inconvenience.
