> From all of the above, I think the important part is that I need to install some "glibc developement files". A google search doesn't point me in the direction of what these might be. According to "eix glibc", I have debug turned OFF - is this the problem? Or is this for debugging glibc and not my code? I think if I can work out the development files stuff, the bswap64 problem will fix itself. |

That's obviously a bug in the ebuild because you should never need to install dependencies |
| 35 |
on your own -- that's a big part of what the ebuild is supposed to do. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Because gentoo compiles most packages from source, all of the development files are |
| 38 |
included with the main package (including glibc) unlike most linux distros that do |
| 39 |
package them separately because many linux users are not going to compile anything. |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
It's true that the gentoo glibc package might have omitted some of the headers by |
| 42 |
mistake, but I don't think so in this case because I just wrote, compiled, and ran |
| 43 |
a C program that includes byteswap.h and got no errors. |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
The bottom line is that the ekopath package is broken -- for reasons I don't know, |
| 46 |
but the package maintainer should ;) |
