Port patch

PCem is a PC and PC-compatible emulator with support ranging from the original IBM PC to Socket 7 motherboards. This port allows it to be packaged on FreeBSD (using a patch that has already been submitted as a pull request).

Patch summary:
- Set include and library paths

patch-v2

This patch is cleaned up from portlint -AC warnings, and a bit simplified.

It still fails in poudriere with this:

checking for off64_t... no
./configure: 4330: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")

I'll investigate further.

patch-v3

This version builds on 13 and 11.2, but fails on 12.0 with:

checking for glGetError in -lGL... yes
checking for alGetError in -lopenal... no
You need to install the OpenAL library.
exit: Illegal number: -1
===>  Script "configure" failed unexpectedly.

See

for pointers to a solution for this. Testbuilding right now.

Comment 7 ktullavik 2019-05-05 03:23:42 UTC
On up to date 13, configure fails for me with "Unsupported CPU". If it's picky about cpu that's fine, but I suspect it's just a bug. Attached my config.log.

Comment 10 ktullavik 2019-05-05 17:00:29 UTC
Looking at it again. It seems I either used the original patch or otherwise somehow missed the bits that explicitly sets CPU=x86_64 in the updated patch. Sorry for the trouble. I must not try to help so late at night.

Did you do run-tests ? All fine ?

  New port: emulators/pcem: PC-Compatible low-level emulator striving for accuracy

  A very accurate (and not very fast) PC and PC-compatible emulator.
  Support currently ranges from the original IBM PC to Socket 7 motherboards.
  It also supports a wide range of peripherals, including Voodoo Graphics!

Committed, thanks to all involved!
Comment 14 ktullavik 2019-05-06 03:30:23 UTC
Just got around to testing a little. It segfaults too often to be usable, and there is seemingly multiple other problems as well. But I guess this PR is not the right place anymore. Have anyone done anything beyond booting into a bios?

Some improvements

Thanks. I've tried to port v13.1, but then pcem was practically unusable, it crashed constantly.
I've attached patch with some improvements:
- Remove PATCHDIR redefinition, it's unnecessary.
- Add amd64 cpu to x86_64 case
- Make  LOCALBASE clean and remove configure.ac patching and USES=autoreconf
