Bugzilla Bug 33889

For some reason the author didn't put the Makefile in along with the source, so
I added a line to check for it and link it to makefile.unix if it's not there. 
I didn't know the proper Gentoo Way to do this, so please change it as needed. 
Other than that tested and Works For Me.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Created an attachment (id=20971) [edit]
xmame-0.77.1.ebuild

Needs glx patch version bumped from files dir.

Created an attachment (id=20972) [edit]
xmess-0.77.1.ebuild

Needs glx patch version bumped from files dir.

yep, i added the ln -s too

now in cvs, thanks

I know how to fix this but this is just a FYI

Take that back, I dunno how to fix =D

uhh, is that the *only* output you see ?
or did you cut out the compile part ?

That was the only output I see, after that output is another 

shapeshifter root # 

Anything I can try for you?

Something weird happened... one day the SDL and svgalib parts were dying off
with a similar error, the next they weren't (at least for me).  Is this still
happening for you today after a sync?

yeah it's a portage bug i saw once a while ago but i dont remember how i
triggered /fixed it ;)

OK, leave it to me not to give it any USE targets, I had -svga -xv ...

oh well, I can't win em all I guess =D
thanks! 

hrm there used to be checks in there and i thought i had it updated so it'd
default to *something* ...
i'll double check it later

OK, for some reason now it pops up in a different place, do I need to bug this
on a seperate bug?

This appears to be triggered by not having opengl in your use flags (at least
for me).  I think this happened in 0.76 (and possibly earlier versions) also. 
Does that ring any bells for anyone?

you guys still getting those weird portage bugs ?

i would try `rm -rf /var/tmp/portage` and see if that fixes things ...
