When trying to build tint2-0.7, it fails saying that: checking for XINERAMA... configure: error: Package requirements (xinerama) were not met: Package xineramaproto was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `xineramaproto.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable Package 'xineramaproto', required by 'Xinerama', not found Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables XINERAMA_CFLAGS and XINERAMA_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. !!! Please attach the following file when seeking support: !!! /var/tmp/portage/x11-misc/tint2-0.7/work/tint2-0.7/config.log * * ERROR: x11-misc/tint2-0.7 failed. * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 49: Called src_configure * environment, line 89: Called econf '--enable-battery' '--disable-examples' * ebuild.sh, line 534: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * die "econf failed" * The die message: * econf failed If I remember correctly, there used to be a USE flag for xinerama in tint2. However, it seems like it has been removed. Has xinerama become a dependency? If so, I believe it should be included in the ebuild. If not, I'm not sure why this error is occurring.

Created attachment 197498 [details] Modified ebuild for tint2 I simply added x11-proto/xineramaproto to RDEPEND.

It requires xineramaproto, which is separate from just the libXinerama. I added it to the ebuild.
Comment on attachment 197498 [details] Modified ebuild for tint2 Also seems to be a runtime dependency--not just a build dependency.
(In reply to comment #3) > (From update of attachment 197498 [details] [edit]) > Also seems to be a runtime dependency--not just a build dependency. > Thank you for reporting, fixed in cvs. xineramaproto is just a build-time dependency, libXinerama is both.
