During a recent upgrade, I noticed a message generated by this: einfo "New in >=wxGTK-2.4.2-r2:" einfo "------------------------" einfo "You can now have gtk, gtk2(ansi) and gtk2(unicode) versions installed" einfo "simultaneously. gtk is installed by default because it is" einfo "more stable than gtk2. Use no_wxgtk1 if you don't want it." einfo "Put gtk2 and unicode in your USE flags to get those" einfo "additional versions if desired." einfo "NOTE:" einfo "You can also get debug versions of any of those, but not debug" einfo "and normal installed at the same time." However, I also ran into problems with merging Audacity; specifically, this error: einfo "Audacity will not build if wxGTK was compiled" einfo "with unicode support. If you are using a version of" einfo "wxGTK <= 2.4.2, you must set USE=-gtk2. In newer versions," einfo "you must set USE=-unicode." die "wxGTK must be re-emerged without unicode suport" I'm assuming since I compiled wxGTK with +gtk +gtk2 +unicode, I'd have all three versions. Shouldn't Audacity just use the gtk2(ansi) version instead of forcing me to do without unicode support in my wx applications?

Please see bug #60151. It addresses this issue.
Created attachment 52572 [details, diff] 1.2.2 diff This will change the deps to only work with =wxGTK-2.4* and only use either gtk or gtk2 without unicode.
Created attachment 53952 [details, diff] Updated patch for 1.2.3 This fixes the same problem, but also fixes bug #83301, and adds a few cleanups at the ebuild. HTH
why doesn't anybody add it to the portage tree? Or at least do an downgrade in the portage tree?(i.e. masking the 1.2.3 ebuild) (I'm sorry but I have no developer account) would be quite nice
patch applied, thanks again to diego for another patch. =)
