x11-drivers/evdi-1.14.4 is missing KVER parameter during build. This will make troubles updating kernel version and building evdi because without this parameter, KVER is set from `uname -r` (https://github.com/DisplayLink/evdi/blob/main/module/Makefile#L68). Possible simple fix (verified locally): add 'local modargs=(KVER="${KV_FULL}")' into the src_compile() function.
I am not sure if some inspiration could be taken from: https://github.com/kabili207/zyrenth-overlay/tree/master/x11-drivers/evdi I am not sure if maybe both could be merged into guru overlay and, maybe, co-maintain the package :/
Inspiration is from my local package what I have for years. I have machine running vanilla kernel which is more frequently updated than gentoo kernel. I realized that evdi is in guru just few weeks ago but update of the kernel make troubles to update the module. I did not know there is evdi in zyrenth repo. But what is written in zyrenth package is actually more accurate than my proposal (passing kernel version and also kernel path)
I'll try to get this fixed soon. Sorry for the delay, fixing protobuf took precedent. This ended up in ::guru because I saw people using random versions and it can be used for x11-wm/xpra.
BTW building with >=sys-kernel/vanilla-sources-6.10 needs a patch, I have it already done, are you interested? Or another question, do you need help with maintaining this package?
