Description Steven Walter 2006-03-21 20:39:50 UTC

x11-libs/libXvMC-1.0.1 can't find XvMCConfig.  When an application attempts to initialize XvMC, the message "can't open XConfigDir/XvMCConfig" is shown.

The problem appears to be the XVMC_CONFIGDIR is defined in Makefile.in, as though it should be substituted for the proper value, but it is not.  In any case, the proper value for Gentoo should always be /etc/X11.  Therefore, I'm attaching a patch to libXvMC and a patch to the ebuild which will apply it.

The patch is tested and working here on amd64.

Hardcode XVMC_CONFIGDIR

This is always true on Gentoo; not sure where the current code works, but it isn't here.

Update ebuild to apply patch

Apply the patch in the previous attachment.  ${PATCHES} is a variable defined in the x-modular eclass.
