HandBrake in Sabayon 4.2 [Solved]

Shibblet · Post by **Shibblet** » Tue Aug 25, 2009 22:30

I am trying to install HandBrake 0.9.3. It's at http://handbrake.fr

I have tried downloading source. It needs Jam to compile, but I keep coming up with an error at the end. I never seem to have good luck compiling on my own. Not enough experience I guess. So I went on to Emerge. And there isn't a handbrake package available. Finally I went to Equo, and once again, no package.

You can download source for the CLI on the website, but I really want the GUI, and it's available as a .deb file.

This is my favorite video transcoder, does anyone know how to get this sucker working?

Right after this...

Code: Select all

# ebuild handbrake-0.9.3.ebuild digest

I get this.

Code: Select all

!!! /usr/local/portage/media-video/handbrake-0.9.3/handbrake-0.9.3.ebuild does not seem to have a valid PORTDIR structure.

The handbrake-0.9.3 folder should just be called handbrake

Hey! Thanks a lot. That seemed to do the trick.

Except that I don't understand why that makes a difference, or how I was to know that.

If you follow the link I gave you for an example, it doesn't have anything to do with versions. Follow the examples and you will be fine as you need to follow proper portage.

Just a heads-up that a new version of HandBrake has been released (0.9.4) and now has native x86_64 support too.

http://lifehacker.com/5412874/handbrake ... e=true&s=x

http://handbrake.fr/

There's an ebuild for HandBrake 0.9.4 in Gentoo Bugzilla Bug Report No. 89432 if anyone's interested.

N.B. Seems the source code file HandBrake-0.9.4.tar.bz2 has not made it onto the mirrors yet, so just click on the Source Code link at the bottom of the Downloads page on the HandBrake Web site, download the file to your Desktop and then copy it to the directory /usr/portage/distfiles/ before merging.

Hmm time for an ebuild bump then. It has supported x64 for ages however, are you sure thats not x64 on windows?
