I started to go through this and clean it up, but the code is quite a mess currently, and it doesn't look like there is an upstream anymore. Is there any interest in keeping this around? Mark i think you can safely removed this from portage. i'm gonna unmerge it. Masked the package and will remove it in 4 weeks unless someone steps up to maintain it.

A patch that fixes compilation problems with gcc 4.1

The ebuild that applies the patch
I forgot to say : I've tested it on x86 tested here on x86 too, works. i think you can apply patch to portage and close this bug x11-misc/paralogger depends on this package. Does anyone from desktop-misc want to take care of this package as well? I really don't want to keep something in the tree that has a dead upstream and is not maintained by a developer. If you don't want to take care of colortail, I'm going to have to mask both packages then. Thanks I'm masking both colortail and paralogger for eventual removal. Sorry guys, but dead upstream makes maintenence infeasable. So, we WONTFIX this one for now, unless someone steps up and wants to maintain all of this stuff. I'm not sure what you mean by "maintenence infeasable", if there is no update maintenence should not be a lot of work. Anyway, if you wish, I can try to maintain this package, but since I'm not a gentoo dev, I'm not sure I'm allowed to do that... Or even better : I could try to become a dev, but I think there is a long way to go.
