Hi , Thank you Lukas for your post. The Nighshade soft i use is a LSS version compiled for small planetariums by Yves Lhoumeau and Lionel Ruiz. I can only get the sources here : http://www.lss-planetariums.info/index.php?lang=en&menu=nightshade&page=nightshade The sabayon Nightshade ebuild is different . I agree with you, i very much prefer to install packages using ebuilds, but i am afraid i am not able to develop any ebuild... Sorry... :-( Some months ago i successfully compiled Nightshade with boost-1.46.1-r1 ; but unfortunately it does not anymore compile even with the same boost version... Thank you again, Cheers, -- Jacques 2012/10/9 mindrunner > Hi, > I always prefer to NOT install software this way into my gentoo.
