Description Alexey Charkov 2010-01-12 22:19:03 UTC
VirtualBox includes a version of rdesktop with added support for USB redirection, usable with their products. Gentoo ebuild of virtualbox-bin does not seem to include this version of the client, so I propose adding USE=rdpusb to the official one. Ebuild using a cleaned-up diff of the VirtualBox version to upstream is attached.

Reproducible: Always

Sorry for the delay, this is now in 1.6.0-r4 ebuild. Thanks for report and patch!

Bernard, have you actually pushed the patch to the mirrors? :) The updated ebuild is there, but the patch is currently missing even from distfiles.gentoo.org.

Indeed, sorry about that! It should get to mirrors on next sync
