[Magic-dev] Gentoo ebuild for magic 7.4.2

[Denis Dupeyron]

For those of you who are using Gentoo, you should know that I have 
submitted an ebuild to install magic 7.4.2. It's not in Portage yet, and 
it may take some time before it gets officially accepted, but you can 
get it right now from Gentoo's bugzilla here :
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=123013

If you need help in setting up a Portage overlay, please read this :
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=3&chap=5
Then, as root, use the following recipe (assuming your portage overlay 
is in '/usr/local/portage', like it should, and that you start typing 
what follows from the directory where you downloaded the ebuild and patch) :

    mkdir -p /usr/local/portage/sci-electronics/magic
    mv magic-7.4.2.ebuild /usr/local/portage/sci-electronics/magic
    mkdir -p /usr/local/portage/sci-electronics/magic/files
    mv magic-7.4-ppc-endian.patch 
/usr/local/portage/sci-electronics/magic/files
    ebuild /usr/local/portage/sci-electronics/magic/magic-7.4.2.ebuild 
digest

Then 'emerge magic' as usual.

Best regards,
Denis.
