$Thanks to the arch wiki, I found a page with some documentation about the patches: Fvwm Patches on the web archive.

whoo, it's been a while since I last posted to this list!
The devnull overlay appears no longer to exist. Is it still being developed? More to the point, is there a live fvwm ebuild somewhere? The recent portage ebuild (added 7. October) is doing something strange with my root menu (no colorset is applied; it's just transparent). Anybody else having this issue?
Cheers,

For your root menu, I guess some syntax changes in fvwm screwed it up. To update your fvwm to the last live code will not make this issue to be solved.
If you start fvwm with startx, it is very easy to get the error messages. On a *kit free system, the following line in your .xinitrc will do that:
| Code: | | exec /usr/bin/fvwm 2>.fvwm-errors |
If your system depend on polkit and consolekit, something like:
| Code: | | exec ck-launch-session /usr/bin/fvwm 2>.fvwm-errors |
should do the same.
I don't know where you can find an up-to-date live fvwm ebuild. You will have to make your own starting from the last portage ebuild and geekounet ebuild. Such a live fvwm ebuild is on my TODO list, but I am very busy with a lot of other things now.

As it took me 5 minutes to make a live FVWM ebuild, I started a new thread with it: [ebuild]New FVWM CVS ebuild.

It's because the old and removed portage ebuild was downloading old code. It took me a while to realize that, mainly because I used 2.6.x. All the development is made on the 2.6 branch, both head and 2.7 are obsolete. Also, the indication on fvwm web site is correct only if you know the development is made on the 2.6 branch, otherwise you will get head, which is outdated.
