I've noticed yesterday that x11-misc/hotkeys has been removed. Seems I have missed the last-rites announcement. In spite of its age (last version in tree 0.5.7.1 was from 2002) the package used to work flawlessly. Please note: 1) The package is actively maintained at Debian, latest version on their mirrors is 0.5.7.4 from 2006. 2) It is trivial to change it to a newer db version. Patch will follow.
Sorry about that; it seemed like it was abandoned and of not much value, so I just got rid of it. Feel free to readd if you would like to maintain it :)
Created attachment 128675 [details, diff] hotkeys-0.5.7.4-db4.patch Patch for >=db-4.2, taken from Debian bug #297316.
O.K., I've restored the previous status. 0.5.7.4 will be added by falco or myself later.

Comment on attachment 128675 [details, diff] hotkeys-0.5.7.4-db4.patch This is already included in Debian's 0.5.7.4.0.1.
Chainsaw: Could you please comment if the patch posted in bug #157559 should be included, too?
The patch would not work on Audacious 1.4; I'd advise to use the following values instead: + "PrevTrack", "audtool --playlist-reverse", + "Play", "audtool --playback-playpause", + "Stop", "audtool --playback-stop", + "Pause", "audtool --playback-pause", + "NextTrack", "audtool --playlist-advance", This will allow you to depend on >=media-sound/audacious-1.3.2 which should be stable just around anywhere. (If I recall correctly I'm still waiting for MIPS, but it would seem that no machine with sound hardware is currently available to their arch team).
