Hi, I've compiled xfce-extra/xfce4-volstatus-icon on a PowerPC G4 machine and it works with a single problem, it crashes on left clicking. I don't know if it's a bug of the app or a problem with the ppc arch. So, I think that the ~ppc keyword can be added to the ebuild, as it compiles fine and works correctly if used with the right button. Thanks!!

Can you give us some details on the crash? Does it provide a backtrace? If not, can you generate one with gdb? Crashing like this would prevent me from marking it ~ppc.
Today I've synced portage, emerged -uDNv world, and recompiled xfce4-volstatus-icon and the problem disappeared. So the problem has to be related to some other package because the version of the app is the same as before, or the ebuild doesn't reflect the change.
Okay, marked ~ppc then. Thanks for getting back to me! :)
