You are right, configuring vte with --disable-gnome-pty-helper prevents vte from using /usr/libexec/gnome-pty-helper even when it is already installed by another package (x11-libs/gnome-pty-helper). Fixed, thanks for reporting. >*vte-0.30.1-r3 (30 Jan 2012) >*vte-0.28.2-r301 (30 Jan 2012) >*vte-0.28.2-r203 (30 Jan 2012) > > 30 Jan 2012; Alexandre Rostovtsev <tetromino@gentoo.org> > +vte-0.28.2-r203.ebuild, +vte-0.28.2-r301.ebuild, +vte-0.30.1-r3.ebuild: > Ensure that vte properly uses gnome-pty-helper (bug #401389, thanks to > زياد بن عبدالعزيز الباتلي for reporting).

Allow building gnome-pty-helper externally
Not sure if you're interested in reopening this old bug, but I have attached what I believe is a more proper fix for this bug. Instead of building gnome-pty-helper and removing the output files, this defines VTE_USE_GNOME_PTY_HELPER even if gnome-pty-helper is built as another package. This has been tested against vte-0.28.2-r206, but the same principle will probably work for the other versions as well. Feel free to use it if you think it's a good idea, or leave the bug closed otherwise |
