Description Marek Szuba (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev 2021-07-20 21:37:10 UTC
In the 6.13 ebuild the relevant econf option is explicitly disabled, with a comment that librtlsdr is not in the tree. Fortunately now that we have got net-wireless/rtl-sdr, which provides the aforementioned library, the option in question can now be supported! Shouldn't be too difficult, having manually toggled this option in the ebuild I was able to build a working rngd linked against rtl-sdr-0.6.0-r1 with no problems.
