Am I doing something wrong here, or how is USE="usbredir" supposed to work!?

qemu-kvm compiles fine with that USE-flag on amd64.

[Comment 5 Andreas Schürch 2012-08-31 08:25:09 UTC]

Okok, I needed to get a newer version of sys-apps/usbredir to get USE=usbredir working.
Now I'm stuck with USE="static sdl"... Even if libsdl is compiled with static-libs enabled, i just get 

ERROR
ERROR: User requested feature sdl
ERROR: configure was not able to find it
ERROR

That used to work with current stable qemu-kvm.

[Comment 6 Doug Goldstein (RETIRED) 2012-08-31 16:26:57 UTC]

USE=static is going to be questionable no matter what because a lot of Gentoo packages don't include static libraries and other components require shared objects, for example ALSA.

Static on Gentoo is an ever evolving and moving target because a package might ship with static libraries one day and then a developer does a revbump and removes it.

Do a stabilization test without USE=static.

[Comment 7 Doug Goldstein (RETIRED) 2012-08-31 16:33:36 UTC]

I've added a warning to the ebuild for users of USE=static.

x86 stable, closing
