Bugzilla Bug 127241

x11-wm/waimea needs to be updated to use modular X.  I'm in the process of
doing so, however, the package has more problems than just not using modular X:
it fails to compile since waimea hasn't been updated to use >x11-libs/cairo-1
(which is the only one in the tree).

As there is a porting guide, I'm trying to make this work.  When I do, I'll
update it to use modular X and fix bug 125906 (and hopefully bug 91758 too).

Looks like upstream is dead
(http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/waimea/2006-January/000190.html).  I
really don't want to remove waimea from the tree, but it doesn't even build
right now.  Since this is the case, I'll p.mask it until I (or somebody) can
make it work with the current cairo - I don't think it should be removed just
yet.

x11-wm/waimea is in package.mask until I can more thoroughly test it.  I plan
on leaving it in there for a while before discussing removal.

Someone uncommented the mask...

halcy0n did so since I forgot to mask x11-misc/wampager too, and he emailed me
letting me know.  I've been lax in getting around to it, but it's now time to
email -dev.

waimea-0.5.1

This is the latest waimea code.  It needs patching to compile with >cairo-1 and
actually work in a sane manner.

patch to waimea-0.5.1 to update to cairo-1

A patch to waimea-0.5.1.tar.gz so it will compile with >cairo-1.  It still is
hardly functional, but it builds and runs.

Please, fix or punt this, not modular X ready.

Closing bug as x11-wm/waimea has been removed from the tree.
