Making PyPanel work with Arch64

[vEX] · 2007-04-24 12:42:01

I was a bit bored and thought I'd try get PyPanel working, I already ran it through gdb some months ago and discovered why it would segfault on Arch64:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
[Switching to Thread 47160048180000 (LWP 8168)]
0x00002ae44e8c0cbf in __imlib_amd64_blend_rgba_to_rgb_cmod ()
from /usr/lib/libImlib2.so.1

Hence the problem is not with PyPanel, but with libImlib2.so.1, which is owned by the imlib2 package.

So I figured I'd google and see what I could find, and what do you know, I stumble across the solution almost right away. The folks over at the Debian mailing list already identified the bug and a way to solve it: http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs … 65634.html.

Now all I needed to do was to update abs, copy the PKGBUILD and modify it, and while at it I moved from 1.2.2 to 1.3.0. PyPanel is now running on Arch64 for me. (I've no idea if the MMX-optimizations are working or not though since I don't have a i686 machine to test them on, I do know they won't work on x86_64 though)
