Bug 144308 – x11-drivers/synaptics bump to 0.14.6 (updated ebuild)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Pietro Franchi 2006-08-18 05:41:32 UTC]

0.14.6 (2006-07-15)
- Some small fixes for xorg 7.0 builds.
- Made the driver work with xorg 7.1.
- Updated the compatibility list.

There are just some small changes (no new features).

The xorg-7 patches are now not needed, and I think we can make use of PICFLAG for adding -fPic with USE dlloader.

I've checked your bumping patch which include my change bug #141122.
So, I've updated x11-drivers/synaptics-0.14.6 by using it on my overlay.
I'd have to say IT JUST WORK(tm).
Thank your contributing, Pietro. :)

However, I know the old one which is already in official tree.
And, it works fine, at least for me (on ~ppc env).
So, I'll follow and see the maintainers' direction.

What was the reason for dropping the has_version checks?

[Comment 4 Pietro Franchi 2006-11-02 00:20:58 UTC]

The reason is because the new Makefile apparently does all the checks, so it seemed to me that doing it also in the ebuild was redundant. I think are the lines from 28 in the Makefile.

I haven't tested it with an old Xorg, but it works with the new.

Alright.  Seemant, do you have time to do this bump?

[Comment 6 Seemant Kulleen (RETIRED) 2006-11-02 14:52:16 UTC]

oh whoops, yeah, I'll, do this right now.

thanks Pietro -- I'm sorry I didn't get to this months ago :/
