Description Luke-Jr 2004-07-21 15:16:39 UTC 
The ebuilds for xf4vnc use x86 binary tar.gz instead of compiling the source. This prevents it from even possibly working on non-x86 systems.
Comment 1 Luke-Jr 2004-07-21 15:17:19 UTC 
Adding xf4vnc's maintainer to CC, since this requires source releases of xf4vnc

FYI: Version 4.3.0.999 has been released.

Comment 5 Daniel Ahlberg (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-01-07 06:49:04 UTC 
When upstream releases the source in tarballs or patches against existing xorg releases changeing to do a compilation would be possible.
