Bugzilla Bug 19880

Emerging balsa without libgtkhtml already emerged causes it to fail. May or may
not have other missing dependencies that I have pre-installed, didn't check.

checking for
glib-2.0
libgnome-2.0
libgnomeui-2.0
gtk+-2.0
gnome-vfs-2.0
gnome-vfs-module-2.0
 libgtkhtml-2.0
... Package libgtkhtml-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libgtkhtml-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'libgtkhtml-2.0' found

configure: error: Library requirements (
glib-2.0
libgnome-2.0
libgnomeui-2.0

) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your
libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add libgtkhtml to list of dependencies or pre-install it

Actual Results:  
Worked fine


Running with ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86", ymmv.

it already has this dependancy, what different versions of libgtkhtml do you
have installed and which one of those did you have to add ?

The dependancy works incorrectly for sure if you had libgtkhtml-3 unmasked in
p.mask .

No libgtkhtml installed before trying to install balsa. When I got the error I
simply emerged libgtkhtml and tried emerging balsa again. Worked like a charm
that time. The libgtkhtml version that got installed was 2.2.3, I did not
specify version when emerging.

Looking at the ebuild file for balsa, I see:

        gtkhtml? ( >=gnome-extra/libgtkhtml-2 )

Looks to me like that dependency needs to be for everyone, not just the ones
who have gtkhtml set.

nah, turned out to be a problem in the switch, it was named wrong (or maybe
they changed it over time). Should build just fine without gtkhtml.

I'm adding 2.0.10 with fix as we speak.
