I'm forwarding this to the pyro-users mailing list, too, to let others know of this option. Please let us know when/if the Gentoo ebuild is accepted. -Doug -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Pyrobot on x86_64 Date: Thu, 26 Feb 2009 09:07:21 +0100 To: Douglas Blank Hello, I have been playing around Pyrobot for a while now, but since my computer is a Linux 64bits I had to install pyrobot on a 32 bits chroot environment. Now taht pyrobot became quite useful for me I decided to get ridd of this chrooted environment. As far as I can see, after some tests and so on, porting the code to x86_64 was pretty simple and does not break anything for x86_32. However, I did not proceed to any exhaustive tests. If you are interested, I attached the patch. I did the patch against CVS version of pyrobot. Basically, I only modified 2 lines of C++ code to make it portable. And I added "-fPIC" to CFLAGS on every necessary makefiles. I hope it does not add flaws in there. For more info, here is the versions of tools I use: gcc 4.1.2 Python 2.5.2 swig 1.3.34 Player 2.0.4 Stage 2.0.3 Gazebo 0.7.0 I am also going to post an ebuild for Gentoo (it is the distro I use) Best regards, T. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. -- Douglas S.
