If gnome-common is missing epiphany stops with these errors: ./configure: line 13876: GNOME_DEBUG_CHECK: command not found ./configure: line 13877: syntax error near unexpected token `maximum' ./configure: line 13877: `GNOME_COMPILE_WARNINGS(maximum) There is a comment left in the ebuild about DEP on gnome-common-3.5.5 because of eautoreconf, but it seems like the DEP got removed at some point. Reinstalling gnome-common then makes the errors go away and epiphany finishes building.
+ 01 May 2015; Gilles Dartiguelongue <eva@gentoo.org> epiphany-3.14.2.ebuild: + Add missing gnome-common dependency, bug #547902. + Thanks for reporting.
