[Gambas-devel] Gentoo emerge problems maybe related to Makefiles

[Sebastian Magri]

I've been trying to install Gambas-2.2.1 and Gambas-2.3.0 in my Gentoo/amd64
machine trough the portage system, but the sandbox security system is giving
me some access violations. It means that during the compilation the package
try to write some files in restricted areas of the file system. The access
violations are listed by portage:

--------------------------- ACCESS VIOLATION SUMMARY
---------------------------
LOG FILE = "/var/log/sandbox/sandbox-29355.log"

open_wr:   /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/mimetypes/application-x-gambas.png
symlink:   /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/mimetypes/gnome-
mime-application-x-gambas.png (symlink to
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/mimetypes/application-x-gambas.png)
open_wr:   /usr/share/icons/hicolor/.xdg-icon-resource-dummy
open_wr:   /usr/share/icons/hicolor/.icon-theme.cache
open_wr:   /usr/share/mime/packages/application-x-gambas.xml
open_wr:   /usr/kde/3.5/share/mimelnk/application/x-gambas.desktop
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've been reading some Makefile.am and found something in the
main/Makefile.am that is maybe responsible of the AVs during emerge:

        @if test x"$(XDG_UTILS)" != x; then \
                echo "Registering Gambas executable mimetype"; \
                $(INSTALL) -d $(DESTDIR)$(gbdatadir)/icons; \
                cp -f
$(srcdir)/mime/application-x-gambas.png$(DESTDIR)$(gbdatadir)/icons; \
                xdg-icon-resource install --context mimetypes --size 64
$(DESTDIR)$(gbdatadir)/icons/appli$
                xdg-mime install $(srcdir)/mime/application-x-gambas.xml; \
        fi

But i don't know nothing about autotools...

It's the reason why i'm mailing you hoping that you can approach better to
the problem and make possible a version bump in Portage Official Tree for
x86 and amd64...

I'm sorry if my English is difficult to understand and wait for your help...
