Bug 80929 – [METABUG] tracker for lookingglass

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jan Brinkmann (RETIRED) 2005-02-05 17:16:35 UTC]

since 1.5 is hardmasked and the wm itself needs better hardware than quake3 or something i thought we could make use of a tracker for that one instead of keeping various bugs open about it

#63236 - x11-misc/lookingglass-bin can be build from source


The ebuild needs to be updated to build the packages from source

#76802 - lookingglass not added to gdm chooser

When I emerge lookingglass-bin, it is not added to the list of window managers in the gdm chooser

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge lookingglass-bin

Actual Results:  
a symlink is created in /etc/X11/Sessions, but no .dekstop files are created,
and gdm does not give looking glass as a choice

Expected Results:  
i should see looking glass as a choice in gdm

#78973  - Ebuild request for looking glass 0.61


Thursday 20 January has been released Looking Glass 3d 0.61 (lg3d).

this one depends on #65937 since first we have to get 1.5 unmasked

[Comment 5 Thomas Matthijs (RETIRED) 2005-03-22 04:58:15 UTC]

no maintainer

Wouldn't be better to reopen the bug and add this to mantainer-wanted@gentoo in case anyone is interested?

Yeah.

What are we exactly tracking here? The ebuild removed 2 years ago? :=)

[Comment 9 konrad okurowski 2006-12-22 10:19:23 UTC]

maybe someone could write now one, update to stable 1.0 release ;) and since java is open source maybe lg3d could be on distfiles servers?

AFAIK, lg3d has been always on distfiles servers, as it was GPL.

I too would be curious to see lg3d run on Gentoo now that it has reached a stable 1.0.

[Comment 12 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2007-02-03 15:00:15 UTC]

Feel free to reopen with something like an ebuild for uptodate version; until then, zero reason for this bug to stay open.
