Description Mike Gilbert gentoo-dev

guacamole-server has optional deps on net-libs/libssh2, net-misc/freerdp, net-libs/vncserver, media-sound/pulseaudio, and media-libs/libvorbis.

However, it does not enable/disable the corresponding features via configure flags or other means.

These deps are therefore "automagic": the package will link with these libraries if they happen to be installed, regardless of the user's USE setting.

On a related note, the detection logic for freerdp appears to be flawed and rdp support is silently disabled when building against net-misc/freerdp-9999.1.

Thanks Mike, this is fixed in the 0.9.3 version.
For freerdp i just depend on a lower version for now...
