Description Aniruddha Shankar 2002-01-18 19:35:22 UTC

I'm running 2.4.15-pre5 on a Celeron 850/128 mb ram. emerge --world update aborts on xchat-
1.8.7.ebuild, with ld complaining about missing -lpython2.1.1 .

/var/db/pkg/dev-
lang/python-2.1.1-r2 exists, and a #> python gives me Python 2.1.1 (#1, Nov 30 2001, 18:29:13). 


emerge --pretend --world update gives me, among other entries:

[ebuild   U] dev-lang/python-
2.2-r4 to /

Comment 1 Aniruddha Shankar 2002-01-20 02:52:43 UTC

Xchat merged successfully when I emerged python-2.2-r4 manually. This seems like an xchat ebuild 
problem (??? not sure???)

I added python >= 2.2 as depend when having python in USE.
