skippy-xd-0.5.0.ebuild
Were you able to install this with xorg-x11? I just tried it and my xorg-x11 does not come with XComposite, XDamage or XFixes. Sorry it only works with the experimental Kdrive X server. My bad. http://freedesktop.org/Software/xserver This should be re-opened. xorg-x11 6.8 comes with the required extensions. I've just tested skippy-xd 0.5.0 under it, and it works perfectly.

skippy-xd-0.5.0-r1.ebuild
Corrected description. Fixed copy of rc file (wasn't copying before). Requires
xorg-x11-6.8.0 or greater (since skippy-xd requires the Composite, XDamage,
XFixes extensions). Now reminds users to enable Composite extension in
xorg.conf.
This also, Works For Me with a newly emerged xorg-x11-6.8.0 with Composite extension enabled (hence the new ebuild I added). So I too think this should be re-opened. However, it's *slow*. Takes three to four seconds on my notebook for skippy-xd to draw its mini-windows. (I'm testing on a pretty new laptop, 1.8Ghz Pentium M with an ATI Mobility Radeon 9000 32MB). *** Bug 68113 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This bug is reopened since xorg now has the required extensions for Skippy-XD . *** Bug 68747 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Created attachment 71476 [details]
skippy-xd-0.5.0-r1.ebuild with modular X deps
It compiles with modular X when setting the right deps. It doesn't work well
though - I don't see the windows' thumbnails - just some blurs. I haven't used
it before so I have nothing to compare it to. Maybe someone can comment on that
issue.
I have auto-tooled the application, and am going to talk to the author in hopes that he will make a release with it. Created attachment 72158 [details]
skippy-xd-0.5.0.ebuild
It only has deps for modular X, however, I dont think that is too big of an
issue.

skippy-xd-0.5.0-noxinerama.patch
Upstream seems to be dead, throwing it back to maintainer-wanted. The tarball is still there for anyone who wishes to maintain the project. Created attachment 99720 [details]
skippy-xd-0.5.0.ebuild
New ebuild, with a patch to get it working on ~amd64.
Created attachment 99721 [details, diff] skippy-xd-0.5.0-CARD32.patch Patch needed for amd64, as described on http://thegraveyard.org/forum/thread.php?threadid=28 (this is an automated message based on filtering criteria that matched this bug) Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild submission. We also apologize for not being able to accommodate you in a timely manner. There are simply too many new packages. Allow me to use this opportunity to introduce you to Gentoo Sunrise. The sunrise overlay[1] is a overlay for Gentoo which we allow trusted users to commit to and all users can have ebuilds reviewed by Gentoo devs for entry into the overlay. So, the sunrise team is suggesting that you look into this and submit your ebuild to the overlay where even *you* can commit to. =) Because this is a mass message, we are also asking you to be patient with us. We anticipate a large number of requests in a short time. Thanks, On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team, Jeremy. [1]: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/sunrise/ [2]: http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/sunrise/wiki/SunriseFaq Is there some change I can believe in going to happen here? :) May be good time to reconsider skippy-xd replacing current skippy package. Original skippy is last released in 2006, and upstream (project site) is unavailable. skippy-xd - at least has both pages available, and github version (referenced from google code) is actual for 2015 year. There's my live ebuild for recent github code. Updated for EAPI 8 and has more use flags for image formats (as makefile seemingly supports). Created attachment 813718 [details]
