[Lurker-users] Installing Lurker on Gentoo

[<mir...@cr...>]

There have been a few attempts for Lurker ebuild at:

Need help creating ebuild for "lurker"

Lurker was however, abandoned in Gentoo sometime in 2009, I believe.

I think lurker is far better than mailman, such as, look up how great it
works for the Devuan project:

https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/list/dng.en.html

I'm only a fraction of a developer, far from a complete dev, which I'll
probably never be.

But I have put some effort into installing lurker on a non-Debian, and
no-Debian-derivative system, which is my Gentoo system, and I'm close to
having a complete out-of-Gentoo-portage installation.

Have a look at my posts in the Gentoo Forums topic link. or, for readers
convenience, from:
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-228582.html#7712344
(which is the same link as) in the top of this message, and which is
recent; it is all in this 2015th year after Ctrist.

For this first message, I only want to post the patches needed, to
install mimelib in Gentoo, and which couldn't be posted correctly on
Gentoo Forums due to phpBB not honoring tabs in beginning of Makefile.in
files.

See how I tried in vain to post the patches at:

https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-228582.html#7809388

and pls., Gentoo readers who are (hopefully) visiting this SF
email-to-webpages links that there should be a few here, with time, as I
might need to ask for a little help as well...

and pls., Gentoo readers, and I think the method applies fine to other
arches as well...

pls. find the paches:

mimelib1_1.1.4_configure.in.patch
mimelib1_1.1.4_Makefile.am.patch

in the attachments to this message.

And yes, they do still have the SHA256 posted on Gentoo Forums:

mimelib1_1.1.4_Makefile.am.patch


Note: tired and sleepy. Pls. check for possible *errata* in the next
message.

Good night for now!
