z88dk forums

Well, this is my first post on the Z88dk forums! I hope I will make valuable contributions to the scene.
Over here at Gentoo Linux we don't have Z88dk in our distro. That's what I want to change. Here is the relevant page on our bugzilla. http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=303223

The way our package manager, portage, works is that for each package there is a bash script that installs the package. But the script fails because one or more of the variables Z80_OZFILES, ZCCCFG, and PATH is not set right. What is wrong here?

src_compile() {
        S="${WORKDIR}/${PN}"
        Z80_OZFILES="${S}/lib/"
        ZCCCFG="${S}/lib/config/"
        PATH="${S}/bin:$PATH"
        cd ${S}
        ./build.sh || die "build.sh failed!"
        emake libs || die "failed to build libs!"
}

src_install() {
        emake install || die "failed to install"
        emake install-libs || die "failed to install libs."
}

So in my bash script, first my src_compile() will be called, and then src_install(). Environment variable $S contains the path to the temporary working directory (where the tarball is extracted to).

(by the by, we are discouraged from using make. We have emake. What the difference is, I don't know exactly.)
