Description manolis 2007-02-23 17:32:54 UTC 
ati-drivers-8.34.0 contain fgl_fglrxgears utility to test ati 3d accelaration. To build this the ebuild searches for the header atiGL.h .
if someone does not have already installed an ati-driver (like me who unmerged the last driver before proceed) can not emerge the new driver.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. unmerge all ati-driver
2. emerge ati-driver 8.34
3.

Actual Results:  
compile error , header glATI.h not found

Expected Results:  
compile and build cleanly
Workaround ofcourse is to install another old ati-driver ebuild (like 8.33 series) and to update to new one (8.34)

Fixes ebuild.

Compiles cleanly without any ATI drivers present on i686 against kernel 2.6.20.

Applied your patch, thanks! And sorry for not testing a merge without ati-drivers installed...
