Subject: [gentoo-ppc-dev] unmasking shorten & shntool (plus xemacs stuff)

1 The latest versions in portage (media-sound/shorten-2.5.1 &
2 media-sound/shntool-1.2.3) build and work fine under ppc and can be unmasked
3 (there isn't even a -ppc or ~ppc in the ebuild).

5 I also tossed up a patch for xemacs on the message board

22 Just append this to the existing xemacs-21.4.9-ppc.diff. Looking at the Changes
23 file distributed with xemacs, it looks like ppc.ldscript was a workaround put in
24 place for PPC Linux about 5 years ago. Now it seems to cause xemacs to fail to
25 build, as documented by the original poster. For what it's worth, I built
26 xemacs-21.4.11, and it compiled and runs OK. Perhaps xemacs-2.4.11 can be
27 unmasked for ppc?
