I tried to emerge app-tv/xawtv earlier, but the build kept failing with this message: mkfontdir xset fp- "/root:unscaled" /bin/sh: xset: command not found make: [all] Error 127 (ignored) xset fp+ "/root:unscaled" /bin/sh: xset: command not found make: *** [all] Error 127 !!! ERROR: media-tv/xawtv-3.94-r1 failed. Call stack: ebuild.sh, line 1525: Called dyn_compile ebuild.sh, line 928: Called src_compile xawtv-3.94-r1.ebuild, line 65: Called die !!! tvfonts failed !!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. However, the problem was resolved as soon as I emerged x11-apps/xset. Looks like the xawtv ebuild needs to be updated to check for modular X, and if it finds it, add xset as a dependancy. I was going to modify the ebuild myself, but I can't make head nor tail of how to do that. With any luck I've filed this bug properly - it's the first time I've done one like this :)
fixed in 3.95-r1, thanks.
*** Bug 136793 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
reopening because modular X is now stable on x86 and xawtv-3.95-r1 still in ~x86.
Please don't reopen random bugs. I'll open a stabilisation request for the new xawtv version.
