 |
|
Followed the Gentoo patch gen guide at wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/creating_a_patch.
Cannot get the ebuild in the local/testing overlay to use it.
I am using links for a browser / cannot get a working -pipewire/pulseaudio- without a working Alsa UCM.
CMD : alsaucm listcards
Response : listisempty
Alsa lost its UCM config path:/usr/share/alsa |

assemblerhead,
Tells us what you patched and what the error is when you try to use it.
Post the patch if it helps.
You cannot apply a batch to the ebuild itself. Instead copy it to your local overlay and edit it there.

file patched /src/ucm/makefile.am
Line added under : AM_CPPFLAGS=-I($top_srcdir)/include
Line added : AM_CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/share/alsa
placed the patch in the files dir, for the overlay.

Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?

assemblerhead,
te patch.
Portage can't find the file | Code: | | alsa-lib-1.2.11/src/ucm/Makefile.am |
to patch.
Its using | Code: | | patch -p1 a/alsa-lib-1.2.11/src/ucm/Makefile.am |
the -p1 throws away the first path element, here a/
| Code: | >>> Preparing source in /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/alsa-lib-1.2.11/work/alsa-lib-1.2.11 ...
* Applying alsa-lib-1.1.6-missing_files.patch ... [ ok ]
* Applying alsa-lib-1.2.11-topology-correct-version-script-path.patch . [ ok ]
* Running eautoreconf in '/var/tmp/portage/media-libs/alsa-lib-1.2.11/work/alsa-lib-1.2.11' ...

The full path to the file you want to patch is | Code: | | /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/alsa-lib-1.2.11/work/alsa-lib-1.2.11/src/ucm/Makefile.am |
Your patch path looks correct.
Can you apply the patch manually?
| Code: |
ebuild /var/db/repos/gentoo/media-libs/alsa-lib/alsa-lib-1.2.11.ebuild prepare
cd /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/alsa-lib-1.2.11/work
patch -p1 <path_to_patch_file> |
The ebuild command runs the unpack and prepare phase functions, then gives you control back.

I will disagree here.
src_prepare, where eapply_user is run, starts by changing to $S. Here, $S=/var/tmp/portage/media-libs/alsa-lib-1.2.11/work/alsa-lib-1.2.11
So the patch must be a/src/ucm/Makefile.am and b/src/ucm/Makefile.am in its headers to be compatible with -p1. |

A new error. GCC crashes when it hits my added "-I/usr/share/alsa".
--file not found : ucm_local.h--
How do I inform alsa-lib where their ucm config files are?
Can't use absolute pathing in CPP includes per GCC manuel. |
