slimlock is a screenlocker inheriting the style used by the SLiM login manager. Works great for me on both ~amd64/~x86 and would imho be a nice addition to SLiM in portage. Attached is a working ebuild for the live-version (-9999), please consider adding to portage, thanks. Reproducible: Always

I would use this; you should try to get it committed to Sunrise so that it has a better chance of making it into portage eventually: http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/sunrise

As long as that doesn't change, either a dev will pick it up, someone else commits it to sunrise or I'll keep it in my personal overlay. If you want and have an account, feel free to commit it to sunrise.
Created attachment 272681 [details] improved ebuild (respects {CXX,C,LD}FLAGS, --as-needed friendly, GCC/G++ setting) Improved ebuild (respects {CXX,C,LD}FLAGS, --as-needed friendly, GCC/G++ settings). I have not tested the binary. Work still needs to be done wrt to MANDIR and PREFIX in Makefile.
It's a live ebuild, just send the build system fixes upstream. I'm sure he'll apply them if they don't cause other problems.
I am quite willing to add this if upstream gets a versioned release online. Live ebuilds are a moving target and as such a maintenance nightmare. Something like 0.01 will do fine. Please negotiate with upstream if possible.
Created attachment 284293 [details] ebuild for x11-misc/slimlock-0.9 There are tagged releases on Github, so I made an ebuild out of the latest tagged version. I also added the missing dep on imlib2, and cleaned up some other little things. The makefile isn't respecting CFLAGS at the moment, but I reported that upstream.
The ebuild needs more deps, and it's not following proper structure, but this is a definite improvement.. Unfortunately i was doing the same thing but working on 0.8.22 (0.9 was just tagged today it seems), so i'll have to attach my update tomorrow.
Created attachment 284415 [details] slimlock-0.9.ebuild ..I had time, so here's an update with a couple of tweaks. I added sed lines to preserve CFLAGS until upstream patches the source (which shouldn't happen directly in 0.9)
Created attachment 284417 [details] slimlock-9999.ebuild here's a mirror update to the -9999 ebuild.
Just waiting on a tag: https://github.com/joelburget/slimlock/commit/0f9df6646166d979596be99fe159076d08f45b97
We've got a tag with those fixes: https://github.com/joelburget/slimlock/tree/v0.9.1
Created attachment 299619 [details] slimlock-0.10.2.ebuild Changes: * version bump * CFLAGS changes were applied upstream * added x11-libs/libXext to dependencies Works fine for me. I vote for commit to portage tree.
It segfaults after unlocking if I enter the correct password the first time as user (it doesn't segfault if run as root or if I try to enter the password more than once). Also today it left me out of my machine, it was completely unresponsive when I arrived in the morning (I had to ssh and killall -9 slimlock). Doesn't seem to be very tested. That's with 10.2. 9999 cannot be compiled right now because of: In file included from /usr/include/X11/Xft/Xft.h:39:0, from panel.h:18, from panel.cpp:13: /usr/include/ft2build.h:56:38: fatal error: freetype/config/ftheader.h: No such file or directory
Created attachment 303767 [details] slimlock-0.11.ebuild created a new ebuild for slimlock-0.11, changes: * added dependency use flags [png,jpeg] to imlib2 as slimlock wont work without them (see https://github.com/joelburget/slimlock/issues/7 ) * added ~arm to keywords as i'm running slimlock on an armv7 machine this is my first ebuild, so please check twice. i tested it on an armel v7 machine. both - the ebuild and the tool - seem to work.
