Sidewinderd on Gentoo Linux

fowlay opened this issue 7 years ago · 3 comments

Hi, I just want to mention that I have created a Gentoo Linux "ebuild" for sidewinderd. An ebuild is a build-from-source-and-install recipe for the Gentoo package manager, so installing sidewinderd can now be done conveniently also on Gentoo Linux. For details read here.

Thank you you made my life easier.

The ebuild needs to require the tinyxml2 as a dependency. Otherwise it will fail at compilation time.

Thanks alecuba16 for pointing this out. I have added the tinyxml2 dependency now.

The systemd service file is installed into /usr/lib/systemd/system instead of /lib/systemd/system. I guess, this is not gentoo specific, and may be fixed in CMakeLists.txt.
