Description Jonas Berlin 2006-12-14 00:19:57 UTC

cairo-1.2.4 and 1.2.6 would support xcb, but require the xcb-util package which is not yet in portage. It seems Bug #93582 is possibly on this task already.

Once xcb-util is in portage, the mentioned cairo ebuilds simply need
 1. IUSE += xcb
 2. DEPEND += xcb? (libxcb xcb-util)
 3. econf += $(use_enable xcb)

Comment 1 Jonas Berlin 2006-12-14 00:25:32 UTC

Hmm, DEPEND possibly needs xcb-proto also and some others, can't say for sure..

All the pieces cairo needs for xcb support should be in the tree.  However, cairo 1.2* uses old header paths to the xcb headers and does not build with xcb enabled.  It's gotten a lot of attention in recent months, so perhaps consider this a 1.3+ feature.

Thanks Josh. That's where this is going. Into the Gentopia overlay.

In the tree (at least, 1.4.2 seems to have it)
