Created attachment 347082 [details] Babl-0.1.10 failing with USE="introspection vala" build.log As noted in bug 413663 comment 19 (and seen in bug 467970 in a different overlay), babl fails to compile with both introspection and vala set at the same time as USE flags. I've attached the build.log, but I'm all out of ideas on this one. Let me know if you need any more information or want me to run any tests though...

I can CONFIRM it on my Funtoo box. Dropbox depends on babl[introspection], I enabled [vala], then build fail.
Basically, the problem is that if '--namespace Babl' is passed to g-ir-scaner, 'Babl *' won't have a type. It looks that other than shipping a static gir, the upstream is out of ideas.
Same problem with media-libs/gegl. Gerard
same for me
I can build it if I have: USE="-introspection -vala"
Is there anything requiring babl[vala]? If not, I would simply disable vala support until the upstream bug is fixed (like opensuse and fedora are doing)
Just USE=-vala isn't enough for me. I have to USE="-introspection -vala" as per Comment #6 to get a successful build.
If I remove the introspection USE flag in /etc/portage/packages.use from babl, the next 'emerge world' fails with: root@lynx2:/root(41)# emerge -pt --update --newuse --deep --with-bdeps=y @world These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order: Calculating dependencies... done!

(In reply to Juergen Rose from comment #9) > If I remove the introspection USE flag from babl and gegl, 'emerge -uvDN > world' does not complain any more. We need to drop introspection and vala from babl and gegl then, no?
Upstream doesn't seem to care one bit about GI (at least, today). We might as well disable it, as nothing can't depend on it ATM anyway.

Both babl and gegl compile fine for me with +introspection -vala. Only adding +vala breaks the build. Removal of introspection support essentially kills support for language bindings. Even though there are no direct dependencies in the tree, it is a critical feature for some. Can we revisit this issue?
It seems this is no longer pertinent since neither ebuild is in the tree, but this never got closed. Closing now.
