Fw: Re: [Qemu-devel] Problem in compiling qemu on Gentoo unstable

[Luca Ferroni]

Sorry I've been out of qemu-devel mailing-list for some days because of a 
problem
in changing my email subscription address.

I send you this message I wrote few days ago and it's never been delivered.

Notice: Gentoo is an up-to-date distribution, there are no precompiled packages,
all is built from source. The source is placed in distribution very soon as it 
is developed, 
so I don't think the post
"[Qemu-devel] libnas,lib-alsa-devel and other compilation error - SOLUTION" by 
Hetz Ben Hamo,
will solve the problem for Gentoo users.

I will try the solution anyway as soon as I have a timeslice :)

Following my friend suggestion
in these days I compile qemu-fast on a Debian unstable system in a static way.
Then I copy executable in Gentoo system.

Bye

There is not alsa-lib-devel ebuild in gentoo, but I succeded in installing 
static alsa-lib.
For gentoo users:
        cd /usr/portage/media-libs/alsa-lib/
        ebuild alsa-lib-x.y.z.ebuild unpack
        cd /var/tmp/portage/alsa-lib-x.y.z/work/alsa-lib-x.y.z/
        ./configure --enable-shared=no --enable-static=yes

You can't build shared and library together

But now the challenge is to do this with libgii and libggi wich --enable-static 
flag is not supported.

Paste from INSTALL
------------------------------
In case you are toying with the thought to build LibGGI statically for some
reason, please note, that due to the dynamic nature of LibGGI this makes no 
sense and is unsupported, so don't use:

  --enable-static         not supported
-------------------------------

So, what kind of library qemu-fast need?

Thanks
