Subject: [gentoo-user] building with off_t set as long long
Date: Mon, 21 Jan 2008 22:06:40 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <D2D7D9FE2492524A925313E2D82E1B5307767516@ORNLEXCHANGE.ornl.gov> (raw)


Hello,

Would anyone know whether it is possible to emerge a package setting
off_t as long long?

The particular case is the library gdbm. The default emerge sets off_t
to 4 bytes therefore file sizes can only be about 2GB. Setting off_t to
8 bytes would remove this constraint.

Thanks,
