The attached patch applied over current ebuild updates it to suit modular x support. It also fixes the --enable-zlib that should have been --with-zlib (and I've dropped the || die, just for style, feel free to ignore that change :) ). HTH, Diego
Created attachment 75197 [details, diff] Ebuild patch
Currently econf dies on its own, but it might change in the future. IIRC after my last talk with our portage guys and agriffis there was no decision wether to have econf and emake die on its own. Bad is that you can't work around them die'ing on its own, except subshelling it, hence I guess the die-on-its-own feature will be removed in the future. I'm currently unable to commit to the tree, if you want to you can toss that patch in.
I thought econf die on its own was something that came to remain, or at least was said. Sigh another obscure point that should be cleared off before 'qa' can be said :P I'll drop that part and commit the rest, thanks :)
Committed.
