Bug 84693 – xscreenserver ignores opengl USE flag and does not compile the opengl savers

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description a+gentoobugs 2005-03-09 18:21:10 UTC]

It seems that after a recent xscreensaver upgrade none of the opengl screensavers are available. This problem persists after re-emerging xscreensaver. Somone else is having this same problem here:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-2173472.html#2173472
The opengl screensavers were available and working previously.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge xscreensaver

Actual Results:  
opengl screensavers are missing from the installation

Expected Results:  
opengl screensavers should be available

sorry forgot the version:

fux ~ # emerge -vp xscreensaver

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

I disabled RENDER and COMPOSITE extensions in xorg.conf, re-emerge xscreensaver and now the openglsavers were installed. Please mark bug invalid.
