x11-misc/rss-glx-0.8.2 released on 31 August 2008. Changelog for 0.8.2: * Limit frame rate to vertical refresh by default if compiled with GLEW and GLX_SGI_swap_control is available. Otherwise, maxfps set to 30. * --nice eliminated and made default. nanosleep/usleep are much better behaved these days. * spirographx modified to use vertex arrays and GNU extension sincosf if available, dropping CPU usage significantly. * Minor updates to correct issues noted by newer compilers. * --disable-debug is now the default in configure. Reproducible: Always
Thanks for the report, assigning to maintainers

I'd looked into creating an ebuild for this myself until I noticed this entry - gave it a go, but I'm getting the same problem when I try my own ebuild and also when trying to ./configure the unpacked tarball. Anyone know how to fix this? checking for gluLookAt in -lGLU... yes checking for Wand... configure: error: in `/var/tmp/portage/x11-misc/rss-glx-0.8.2/work/rss-glx_0.8.2': configure: error: The pkg-config script could not be found or is too old. Make sure it is in your PATH or set the PKG_CONFIG environment variable to the full path to pkg-config. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables Wand_CFLAGS and Wand_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. To get pkg-config, see <http://pkg-config.freedesktop.org/>. See `config.log' for more details. !!!

(In reply to comment #7) > configure: error: The pkg-config script could not be found or is too old. Actually, you have the answer ;) i'm using dev-util/pkgconfig-0.23
That's the version installed here as well, which is why I didn't understand the error I was getting. emerge -pv pkgconfig These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild R ] dev-util/pkgconfig-0.23 USE="-hardened" 0 kB

0.9.0 in portage, and I've dropped usage of patches (please open a new bug if one of them is still needed, everything seems to work fine here without)
