Created attachment 353442 [details] ebuild, works for me weston-1.2.0 ebuild in portage is terribly broken: x11-libs/libdrm is not optional dep x11-libs/gdk-pixbuf is not used anywhere in sources now app-text/poppler and dev-libs/glib:2 are used only in clients/view.c, but it is optional and not installed x11-libs/libXcursor, media-libs/lcms:2, media-libs/libpng, media-libs/libwebp, virtual/jpeg, sys-libs/mtdev, media-libs/glu are automagic deps sys-libs/pam dep is missing virtual/pkgconfig dep is missing with --disable-setuid-install weston-launch does not work for non root users xwayland-compositor option was renamed to xwayland in configure build with USE="-clients" fails gnome-base/librsvg is build time only dep full gl support needs newer cairo, it also is required for /usr/libexec/weston-screensaver x11-libs/cairo does not have USE gles2 in portage media-libs/mesa is twice in ebuild for no good reason REQUIRED_USE are missing deps for drm, fbdev and wayland-compositor USE .la files are not removed Gentoo does not have group weston-launch, "video" is used USE fbdev and rpi have missing udev and mtdev deps There are also some other bugs in ebuild. I fixed most of bugs in x11 overlay, but 3 problems are still not fixed: systemd is automagic, need to patch configure.ac we need some USE flag for building and installing clients_programs, now they are built, but not installed. 7 of 8 tests fail. Please commit attached ebuild and metadata.xml.

Please do not conflate several issues in one bug, but file separate bugs for each issue.
Do you seriously mean opening 20 bugs for one package? There is fixed ebuild in x11 overlay, it is much better then current ebuild from portage tree, why keep broken ebuild in main repo?
1 bug for bad or automagic dependencies 1 bug for group changes 1 bug for missing executables 1 bug for build failure 1 bug for runtime failure 1 bug for cosmetic changes (unless trivial)
Most of the issues are now fixed in 1.2.0-r1 eclass changes require separate discussion and review.
