=dev-db/mysql-workbench-5.2.34 depends on gnome-base/libgnome, however I have it running successfully on my system without gnome-base/libgnome. The dependency seems unnecessary, so is to possible to remove the dependency (or make to it conditional on a use flag) Thank you % emerge --info Portage 2.1.10.11

I've verified that libgnome is no longer needed at all in this version of mysql-workbench so I've removed the dependency altogether. Thanks for reporting and testing.
