Hello, i just search a x fortune for my window manager ... i found nothing on portage ... so i've just patched the fortune mod ebuild , in order to have an X use flag and a little script depending on xmessage. Since Xorg-7 xmessage has is own ebuild ... so this ebuild depends on it ...
have a nice fortune day.

No thanks. We're not going to add deps and a hackish script to portage for your convenience. This is the sort of thing that should be brought up with the upstream developers. We try to not change functionality of a package like this, and we definitely don't want to be maintaining our own little Gentoo "fork" of these packages. We'll gladly add the X USE flag if there's upstream support for an X-based fortune. |
