Emerging nvclock fails on a system without X and with USE="-gtk -qt3". It happens because nvclock is configured with --enable-nvcontrol (the default), which requires x11. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to emerge nvclock on a system without X and with USE="-gtk -qt3" 2. Configure fails Actual Results: [...] checking for getopt.h... yes checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config checking for x11... configure: error: "X11 required for nvcontrol support" Expected Results: Package should install successfully. The problem would be solved by adding a USE flag to the ebuild (named 'nvcontrol'), and making sure it depends on x11.

I'd say the more appropriate USE flag for this would be "X" and not "nvcontrol".

Comment on attachment 188023 [details, diff] Proposed patch We don't need another USE flag, or else what would happen when USE="X -gtk -qt3"? - It would still fail. Rather, we need to make sure that when neither USE=qt3 or USE=gtk is set, we set --disable-nvcontrol. Also, depending on x11-base/xorg-x11 is overkill.
Fixed in -r4. Please test and reopen this bug report if the fix is not satisfactory.
