 |
|
I've been looking for R (www.r-project.org) but it is not in portage. Also as per some other posts I tried to see if it is in bugs.gentoo.org but it is incredibly hard to search on just 'R'. What to do?
What does it take to write an ebuild on one's own? |

That is a start for you, it works and starts to compile but fails after a while on:
| Code: | dataentry.c: In function `GetKey':
dataentry.c:1272: warning: passing arg 4 of `XLookupString' from incompatible pointer type
dataentry.c: In function `GetCharP':
dataentry.c:1281: warning: passing arg 4 of `XLookupString' from incompatible pointer type
dataentry.c: In function `doControl':
dataentry.c:1302: warning: passing arg 4 of `XLookupString' from incompatible pointer type
make[4]: *** [dataentry.lo] Error 1 |
I dont use the app so that is as far as I'm taking it.  (it may even be failing because I have xorg, I dunno)
I didn't include deps in the ebuild either.
OOPS! Guess I shoudl have searched portage my self before posting it. Oh well, you have an example basic ebuild to make new ones from if you ever need to now |

R compiled fine with "emerge R"
It's still hard to look it up using the -S / -s option - and admittedly I should have simply done the obvious emerge R first. But I've been looking for it in app-sci, which is not where it is. Maybe we can put a pointer to dev-lang in there?
thanks again.

I was also searching for R in portage a while ago... but when I found it in dev-lang I had already downloaded the source and compiled it myself 
Really great piece of software by the way... |
