I have committed an ebuild for pike-7.4.20 to gentoo's portage tree. Gentoo users can install it just like every other ebuild, too.
Interesting.
This is the initial commit of a pike ebuild so I'd be warmly interested in every sucess and failure story regarding the ebuild ;-)
With your feedback I hope to steadily improve the pike ebuilds and get it into the stable tree quite soon.
After a quick peek at your ebuild file, it looks like we would like your help to improve Pike, as well. (I noticed you had some kind of problems with ffmpeg and -fomit-frame-pointer.)
We run a build farm to try to learn about such problems occurring on various operating systems and platforms - ideally to fix them in pike itself, so packagers should not need to bother themselves; check out http://pike.ida.liu.se/development/pikefarm/7.4.xml for an overview.
If you would like to run a gentoo build client once in a while, we would only be too glad - that way we will have some automated means for tracking problems that creep up in the most recent source tree in CVS at any time (or at least as often as build clients have a go at the source).

Hello guys,
first, I am new to the list, just subscribed some hours ago. Well, I am also new to pike, I heard of pike for the first time yesterday but I have to admit that it looks really promising and I'll have a closer look at it ;)

For reference, you can also take a look at it using our viewcvs: http://www.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/dev-lang/pike/
