Malcolm, please do not submit tarballs to the bug system. Please obsolete your current attachment and add the individual ebuilds to this bug. Please do NOT attach digests or Changelogs or that stuff.
Created attachment 32419 [details] Libvisual ebuild This obsoletes the first attach. Please note that this is linked with other ebuilds (libvisual-xmms, libvisual-nebulus, libvisual-plugins), which I'll add next. Maybe this should be transformed in only one ebuild with multiple use flags (xmms, plugins, nebulus, ...) ?
Created attachment 32420 [details] Nebulus plugin Nebulus is an audio visualization plugin that uses libvisual framework
Created attachment 32421 [details] General plugins General input and visualization plugins that use libvisual framework
Created attachment 32422 [details] XMMS plugin XMMS plugin to use libvisual framework. This enables xmms to display every visualization supported by libvisual (as provided by libvisual-nebulus and libvisual-plugins).
libvisual installe the libs in /usr/lib and completely ignores the --libdir option passed to configure. I've started fixing it and have committed the fixes thus far to portage in package.mask, but I am running out of patience for this right now, so perhaps youu can work on it further... otherwise I'll come back to it later... thanks.
actually.. nevermind.. i figured it out... so libvisual is now in portage...
@Jeremy: I've did a patch for resolving the sandbox violation and reported it in bug #64226
god... i can't believe it's taking me so long to get the rest of these in portage... damn strep throat =( If youu could make an ebuild for libvisual-gforce too, that'd be great, too...
the xmms plugin is now in portage... please use mirror://sourceforge/ instead of a direct URL to a specific sf mirror. Also, be careful to list the correct LICENSE
please take a look at the media-plugins/libvisual-plugins ebuild I added to portage and use that as a base for fixing libvisual-nebulus and libvisual-gforce.
New versions of libvisual-* are now in portage (bug 81432). libvisual-nebulus and libvisual-gforce are now obsoleted by libvisual-plugins, it seems.
