Sparc tests fine under the following conditions: |
15 |
|
16 |
1. ebuild taken from cvs at 13:06 (GMT) |
17 |
2. USE flags thus: |
18 |
=========================== |
19 |
lacewing root # PKGDIR=${PD} emerge -pkv xorg-x11 |
20 |
|
21 |
These are the packages that I would merge, in order: |
22 |
|
23 |
Calculating dependencies ...done! |
24 |
[binary R ] x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4 (-3dfx) (-3dnow) +bitmap-fonts |
25 |
- -cjk -debug +dlloader -dmx -doc -font-server +hardened +insecure-drivers |
26 |
- -ipv6 -minimal (-mmx) +nls +opengl +pam -sdk (-sse) -static |
27 |
+truetype-fonts +type1-fonts (-uclibc) -xprint +xv [1] |
28 |
=========================== |
29 |
|
30 |
3. Because of the +dlloader, necessarily the patches from Bug 61063 were |
31 |
applied. |
32 |
4. This version of X is hardened. |
33 |
5. The (deprecated) keyboard driver is still required. kbd shifts keys as |
34 |
it always has. |
35 |
|
36 |
6. NOTE: The two 'is_kernel' tests produce error messages, but (for me, |
37 |
at any rate) ebuild operation is correct anyway. I have not |
38 |
investigated further, but as I recall, the messages were: |
39 |
[: wrong number of arguments (for the check kernel-2.2.x) |
40 |
Command '*' not understood |
41 |
|
42 |
Given this, sparc is fine. --- |
43 |
|
44 |
7. For non-(hardened+dlloader) users (everyone but me, I think), |
45 |
extra patching should not be needed, although at some point, the |
46 |
61063 patches are required. |
47 |

Nice job, |
