*** Bug 2878 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
i'm do a ebuild of xosd, and now i use this patch :)
The patch file did not make it into the portage tree.
*** Bug 2571 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Technically, this bug is the duplicate of bug 2571, and not the other way around. But since this version of the ebuild made it into the portage tree sooner than the one, submitted by David Leal, I've marked but 2571 as a duplicate of this one. To Bass: Could you please have a look at the activity for the bug 2571 and see whether some of the stuff can be used to improve the existing ebuild for xosd? Also, as I mentioned above, the patch, submitted by Stacey is absent from the "files" subdirectory. Thanks.
I've added the patch, but a new version is comming up.
