Description Stefan Sperling 2004-01-31 10:05:20 UTC

zsnes-1.36.ebuild and zsnes-1.37_pre20041220.ebuild have an
unconditional dependancy on virtual/x11. 
But znes uses SDL, so it can run on X, fbcon, svgalib, ggi and aalib (but the latter looks silly ;).
Workaround: change the line saying 'virtual/x11' to 'X? (virtual/x11)'
I don't have X and zsnes works neatly on the framebuffer console.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. don't have X installed
2. emerge -p zsnes

what if i change it so that the opengl USE will pull it in ?
opengl? ( virtual/opengl virtual/x11 )

that work for you ? :)

Comment 2 Stefan Sperling 2004-01-31 13:32:22 UTC

Well, if SDL can use X only with opengl I consider this a good move.
Else it's just inconsistent. Why not USE X directly?

well, it doesnt even need it

i've removed virtual/x11 from the DEPEND
