gspd fails to install when the X use flag is disabled. This is on a system with gcc6.4. The install works when X is enabled again. However, since the X use flag for pulls in a lot of (26+) packages that are not needed e.g. on embedded systems, it should be possible to disable those with -X. This bug was also reported as bug 631672 and then marked as resolved as a duplicate of bug 589888. However, the fix mentioned in bug 589888 does not seem to apply. # emerge -v gpsd * IMPORTANT: 1 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'. * Use eselect news read to view new items.

I can confirm the problem with USE='-X' Surrounding it with a file check fixes the problem. I don't know why we would check if the configure honours the disable X. This is valid for >=3.17 including 3.17-r1. I didn't test -9999 if ! use X ; then if [ -f "${ED%/}"/usr/bin/xgps ] ; then rm "${ED%/}"/usr/bin/xgps* || die fi fi Anyway, this got me going...
