net-fs/winexe-1.0.0-r1 fails to build on ~amd64 #301

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I accept the broken pieces, this is more of a heads up than anything.  This 
package fails to build on a fully updated ~amd64 system, which I suspect has 
more to do with it running Perl 5.20.x than anything.  The live ebuild might 
fix this, but getting mingw64 working properly was taking more time than I had.

As I already explained in 
https://code.google.com/p/pentoo/issues/detail?id=281, we don't accept bugs 
which are out of our profile. So you are on your own here.

We run stable arch and winexe compiles fine in this setup. If your desire to 
have an unstable (~) arch, you should expect to use unstable, and sometimes 
even git (live) ebuilds.

However, feel free to provide patches which you think might help you and other 
people. Always happy to help.

If you actually read the bug you'll notice that there is no request for 
support. It's a signpost for anyone else stepping outside the norm so they 
don't waste hours going in the wrong direction.

If there is a place you would rather known-broken things be posted, I'm willing 
to work with that.

If you were aware of just how broken the deps of net-fs/winexe-9999 are and 
how, in spite of manually installing two undocumented deps on specific crossdev 
profiles it still fails to compile, you might know that running the live ebuild 
isn't an immediate option.

Thanks for your 5 seconds of consideration.

Oops. Sorry. My impression was what you expected some kind of action from us. 
Please keep them posted for everybody's awareness and post all patches/ebuilds 
which you might have locally.

Thanks, and my apologies - I was responding rather harshly myself.
