Created attachment 139535 [details, diff]
applies to xfce-base/xfce-utils/xfce-utils-4.4.2-r1.ebuild

[Comment 2 Daniel LaMotte 2007-12-28 20:43:29 UTC]

Only tested with USE=minimal.  Will update bug with more ebuilds soon.

[Comment 3 Daniel LaMotte 2007-12-28 22:11:06 UTC]

x11-libs/vte

also needs to be added.

[Comment 4 Daniel LaMotte 2007-12-29 01:20:37 UTC]

this is on x86. (linux)

These are also needed as deps of xfce4 but were neglected because they were in different categories

games-misc/fortune-mod
x11-themes/gtk-engines-xfce

Fortune-mod needs this patch to be applied after it is eapify'd & ecleankw'd.

[Comment 6 Jeremy Olexa (darkside) (RETIRED) 2008-01-02 15:00:50 UTC]

I got xfce4 running in my prefix now as well as the OP (lamotte). Tested with USE="-minimal xscreensaver" other USE flags have not been tested but I don't think that is a pre-req for adding it to the tree. Let me know if you need anything else here.

Just a heads-up/info:
fortune-mod is in the tree, but needed more/different patching.  As you can see in your version, the non-prefix is hardcoded into the binaries, so $prefix had to be assigned.

[Comment 8 Fabian Groffen 2008-01-15 14:51:16 UTC]

xfprint needed some changes too (net-print/lprng is not going to work in prefix imho)

[Comment 9 Fabian Groffen 2008-01-15 14:55:13 UTC]

">=x11-libs/vte-0.11.11 is missing too (Dep for terminal)

Ah, yes. I'm not sure where xfce uses fortune-mod but had I actually tried to use fortune mod, that would have been apparent.

Not expecting/needing it to. Fine by me.

See comment #3

sorry, I missed that comment about vte.

[Comment 12 Fabian Groffen 2008-01-15 16:27:34 UTC]

committed all, so should be in now.  Thanks!
