Try unmerge gift-cvs and then reemerge or simply reemerge. Sometimes the server is busy. Thank you cram. I didn't think about upload at all but the download bandwidth limitation was due to the two or three hosts @56kbps I was connected to, not due to my giFT config.

This cannot hurt to unmerge  but just emerge gift would have been sufficient.

|
|
giFT-cvs is currently not broken (well, we all know why there is no release yet) and hipnod added an interesting gnutella protocol support that allows you to download (only download at that time) from the gnutella network.
You can make a new ebuild named gift-cvs-0.10.1.ebuild as followed:
| Code: |
# Copyright 1999-2003 Gentoo Technologies, Inc.
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
# $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/net-p2p/gift-cvs/gift-cvs-0.10.1.ebuild,v 1.6 2003/02/18 06:25:19 lostlogic Exp $
DESCRIPTION="Lets you connect to OpenFT, a decentralised p2p network like FastTrack"
HOMEPAGE="http://gift.sourceforge.net"
SLOT="0"
LICENSE="GPL-2"
KEYWORDS="x86 sparc ~ppc"
DEPENDS="virtual/glibc
>=sys-libs/zlib-1.1.4"
inherit cvs debug flag-o-matic
strip-flags
ECVS_SERVER="cvs.gift.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/gift"
ECVS_MODULE="giFT"
ECVS_TOP_DIR="${DISTDIR}/cvs-src/${PN}"
S=${WORKDIR}/${ECVS_MODULE}
src_compile() {
cd ${S}
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --host=${CHOST} --enable-gnutella || die
emake CFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS}" || die
}
src_install() {
einstall giftconfdir=${D}/etc/giFT \
plugindir=${D}/usr/lib/giFT \
giftdatadir=${D}/usr/share/giFT \
giftperldir=${D}/usr/bin || die
cd ${D}/usr/bin
mv giFT-setup giFT-setup.orig
sed 's:$prefix/etc/giFT/:/etc/giFT/:' giFT-setup.orig > giFT-setup
chmod +x ${D}/usr/bin/giFT-setup
}
|
Changelog: I just added the --enable-gnutella option to ./autogen.sh 
Copy this ebuild to /usr/local/portage/net-p2p/gift-cvs/gift-cvs-0.10.1.ebuild. Then do
| Code: |
bash $ ebuild /usr/local/portage/net-p2p/gift-cvs/gift-cvs/gift-cvs-0.10.1.ebuild digest
bash $ emerge /usr/local/portage/net-p2p/gift-cvs/gift-cvs-0.10.1.ebuild
bash $ giFT -d
bash $ giFTcurs
|
Et voila !
This gnutella plugin is very alpha but it will not mess up your system (at least not today  , giFT is just running fine.
Regards,
Sébastien
[EDIT] The documentation is _very_ lacky and we need to tweak the config of giFT to make the Gnutella plugin running. I have hope we just need a while ... and some brains (join IRC channel #gift on freenode.net).

I had the same problem; fixed it by deleting .giFT/OpenFT/nodes and nodes-something.html, though it's probably only necessary to delete one of them.

|
|
Hello Carlos, Nickrout, Cram, MaGNuS_Z, darktux, digitalnickOdsinsDream and all giFT users,
as the giFT users community along with the Gentoo community are continuously growing, I decided to open a giFT thread (a hopefully future "giFT central") in the gentoo Off-wall forum which is intended to collect and resolve the problems gentoo users have with giFT.
The link is here: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=41548
I posted some ideas there (and a problem, well, forums are for that ), you can tell me what you think about it. I would be happy if you we all could contribute to the enhancement of giFT support in Gentoo platforms.
Regards,
Sébastien. |
