I've never added a virtual before, so I figured I'd post and ask. ;-) Currently, in the old GNUstep packages in portage, there is only "gnustep-back" as a package. However, a handful of backends exist: gnustep-back-x11 (good default/okay for remoting/etc), gnustep-back-art (uses libart_lgpl), and gnustep-back-cairo (is in development, atm). There are also backends for Cygwin / MingW on Windows, for example. Using GNUstep involves having one of these backends. So, considering all this, where/how/to-what do I add this virtual? I'd like to add it to "all systems that can run X11" (for the 3 available x11 dependant back ends), but there is also the possibility for cygwin / mingw GNUstep on windows. Granted, GNUstep on Gentoo on Linux doesn't work on arches other than x86, ppc that well atm, but it can and likely will. I've probed around in the profiles directory in portage, but I fear that .../profiles/base/virtuals may not be the right spot for this. But I just don't know. Also, I've heard there was a virtuals doc, possibly...am I just not able to easily find it? Any thoughts on all this, and especially what I may be overlooking, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. __Armando Di Cianno -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using the GPG bundle for GNUMail.app iD8DBQFBMP+NwgiTPLI9xhcRAmIIAJ9CJcyLGRdRgALGDRESh1fcDOmOsACeM7Fg txSkp2Bd4EgzhsphZHIYb6s= =uJWq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
