Created attachment 141428 [details] ggivnc-0.4.0.ebuild
ggivnc will use media-libs/libggiwmh if it is available, libggiwmh should probably be a dependency. ggivnc will use sys-libs/zlib if it is available, zlib should probably be a dependency. If zlib is available, ggivnc will also use media-libs/jpeg if it is available, jpeg should probably be a dependency. ggivnc requires media-libs/libgii, but libgii is also a dependency of media-libs/libggi which is already a dependency of ggivnc. I do not know how it is prefered that "cascading" deps are handled. In this case though, libgii is also a direct dependency of ggivnc. Cheers, Peter (the upstreams author)
Created attachment 247130 [details] app-text/ggivnc-0.5.0.ebuild according to recommendations I cannot run ggivnc in aalib mode. Tried x86 and amd64, with attached .ebuild taking somehow your recommendations in account. I compiled it with USE="slang debug aalib -X" ; but the debug flag does nothing to ggivnc. I run it with: DISPLAY= GGI_DISPLAY=aa ggivnc -dddd 1.2.3.4 Here is the usual output: version Server has protocol version RFB 004.001 Using protocol version RFB 003.008 security Security type: 5 - ra2 Security type: 6 - ra2ne Security type: 2 - vnc-auth Password: then it hangs or quits without or just after asking for the password. On amd64, the string "Password:" is remplaced by init or nothing. DISPLAY= AAOPTS="-driver slang" GGI_DISPLAY=aa monitest is working fine: my ggi installation is OK. x11-drivers/xggi-2.0.0 did not work at all :-( Can you update ggivnc's ebuild to take in account the debug flag ?
