Description Guido 2007-10-29 07:30:42 UTC

The ATI drivers (tested witdh version 8.39.4, but this presumably holds for every version) depend on libXrandr. This dependency is missing from the ebuild and is not emerged either as part of any other dependency.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start with a clean system
2. install gentoo linux following the handbook
3. set VIDEO_CARDS="fglrx" in make.conf and emerge xorg-server
4. as an example: try running aticonfig

Actual Results:  
aticonfig will not start because libXrandr is missing

Comment 2 Michael Wharmby 2007-11-06 12:01:26 UTC

Could/should x11-libs/libXrandr not be set as a dependency of ati-drivers in the ati-drivers ebuild?

Comment 3 Bernd Steinhauser 2007-11-24 01:32:19 UTC

atieventsd, amdcccle and aticonfig depend on libXrandr:
ldd amdcccle
libXrandr.so.2 => /usr/lib/libXrandr.so.2 (0x0000003177400000)

So, confirming this.
