Description Nikos Chantziaras 2012-04-01 15:48:29 UTC

kde-base/klipper-4.8.1 (probably 4.7.4 too, didn't test) lacks USE flags for enabling/disabling various stuff like prison, GoogleGadgets, and PAM.  It auto-detects them at build time, and if found, links against them.  For example, if media-libs/prison is installed on the system, kde-base/klipper cannot be told not to use it.

klipper-4.8.1.ebuild.patch

klipper is part of kde-workspace and therefore inherits a number of configure checks that aren't actually used.

Prison however is indeed an automagic dependency, and attached is a patch correcting this.
