Bug 198210 – Please add x11-misc/xscreensaver-5.03 to the tree

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo/Alt

[Description Jeremy Olexa (darkside) (RETIRED) 2007-11-05 21:09:16 UTC]

Attached is the ebuild that I modified to get xscreensaver working. Two important things I changed besides running eapify are:
1) Removed 2 deps that should be already installed on your host computer. (You will see them commented out)
2) Added a configure call.

I compiled this without any USE flags so this ebuild may need further scrutiny because it is so "hacked" compared to normal gentoo ebuilds.

Tested on x86 hardware.

what configure call did you add?

didn't do what you did, seems to compile at least.  Added.

Yup, that works. Just tested it. To be honest, I don't remember why I needed that either.
