Description Timo A. Hummel 2011-08-22 17:42:42 UTC

Hi,

the ebuild g15macro-1.0.3 is missing the --enable-xtest configuration option.

With that option missing, g15macro only creates synthetic KeySyms in xev, resulting in many (or all?) window/hotkey managers can't have commands assigned to the additional logitech G-keys.

The fix is easy, just issue ./configure --enable-xtest instead of ./configure during the ebuild.

This is a problem which is hard to detect and quite many questions have been raised why g15macro doesn't work on gentoo on G15/G11 keyboards. As this is an easy fix, it should be solved soon.

Reproducible: Always
