Bugzilla Bug 185428

Building the psemu plugin psemu-peopssoftgpu-1.17 fails with the following
error:

make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/X11R6/lib/libXxf86vm.a', needed by
`all'.  Stop.

installing libXxf86vm didn't help (/usr/X11R6 has been obsolete for ages).

Reproducible:  Always.

Steps to reproduce:  emerge psemu-peopssoftgpu

Expected result:  An installed psemu-peopssoftgpu

Actual result:  Error.

builds fine here.  reopen with the output from emerge --info

2 things:  I normally don't use portage, although I have configured it so that
I can use it if needed.  I tested with it after you said "worksforme" and the
ebuild still bails.  I just attached the output of both emerge --info and
paludis --info so that you can see how my system is configured.  I've also got
some other stuff to add/correct.

First, Steps to reproduce (using portage):

emerge -C libXxf86vm
emerge psemu-peopssoftgpu

Sorry, I left the first line out earlier.

Second, further information about my config, not listed in either --info file:

$ ls /usr/X11R6
ls: cannot access /usr/X11R6: No such file or directory

Paludis did not create the /usr/X11R6->/usr symlink, if it was even supposed to
(my entire system is built with paludis, not portage), and I have not created
it by hand for compatibility purposes yet.  Even if the symlink was indeed
supposed to have been created by portage/paludis, the first part of this bug
still stands:  psemu-peopssoftgpu-1.17 apparently has a hidden dependency on
libXxf86vm.

yep.  fixed in portage.  thanks for the bug report.
