Bugzilla Bug 132502

x11-apps/xdpyinfo should respect dmx, dga and xinerama 
use flags in DEPEND and RDEPEND:


RDEPEND="x11-libs/libXext
        x11-libs/libX11
        x11-libs/libXtst
        x11-libs/libXxf86vm
        dga? ( x11-libs/libXxf86dga )
        x11-libs/libXxf86misc
        x11-libs/libXi
        x11-libs/libXrender
        xinerama! ( x11-libs/libXinerama )
        dmx? ( x11-libs/libdmx )
        x11-libs/libXp"
DEPEND="${RDEPEND}
        x11-proto/xextproto
        x11-proto/kbproto
        x11-proto/xf86vidmodeproto
        dga? ( x11-proto/xf86dgaproto )
        x11-proto/xf86miscproto
        x11-proto/inputproto
        x11-proto/renderproto
        xinerama? ( x11-proto/xineramaproto )
        dmx? ( x11-proto/dmxproto )
        x11-proto/printproto"





BTW: HOMEPAGE and DESCRIPTION for most modular x
ebuilds are really stupid. Which probably is a 
matter of lacking time.

Suggestion for libXinerama and  xineramaproto:

HOMEPAGE="http://sf.net/projects/xinerama
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xinerama"
DESCRIPTION="Multi screen display extention [library|protocol headers] for x11"

Suggestion for libXxf86dga and xf86dga:

DESCRIPTION="Direct Graphics Access layer [library] for x11"

Suggestion for libdmx and x11-proto/dmxproto:

HOMEPAGE="http://dmx.sourceforge.net/"
DESCRIPTION="Distributed Multihead X Project [protocol headers]"

Please tell me if I should post this somewhere else.

That's exactly the problem.  We'll probably follow upstream's descriptions for
all the packages eventually.

As for homepages, I'm certainly not going to search for the homepage for every
package.  If you'd like to do so, by all means file a bug and start listing
them.  It'd be very much appreciated.

The only useful way to supply HOMEPAGE/DESCRIPTION info is as a large diff
against /usr/portage. Applying even one diff per package just doesn't scale,
with this large of a number.

A lot of them might have useful man-page summary lines, e.g. "xinit - X Window
System initializer"

The proposed flags won't work correctly since we can't enforce the USE flags if
those libraries are already on the system.  xdpyinfo doesn't have features in
its autoconfig scripts for enabling/disabling support of the modules.  If you'd
like to patch configure.ac, that'd be great.  It'd have to be accepted upstream
first before we'd put it in though.

See: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7027

Alright, we'll see what they say.

Marking UPSTREAM.

Upstream has made the required changes.

Fixed in 1.0.2.
