Description Sergey Kuleshov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-08-19 06:04:47 UTC
currently pygtk will be built with glade support iff gnome is in USE. however
glade isn't effectively part of gnome system and many (if not most!) pygtk based
apps use glade in one way or another. Requiring gnome for pyglade to build seems
missleading. Furthermore, libglade doesn't take much of extra dependencies.

So my suggestion is either to make libglade unconditional dependency, or if we
realy need users to be able to diable it, use 'noglade' for such an exotic case.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

true, and technically the ebuild shouldn't have the flag since it does not have
an appropriate switch in configure.

Will fix this shortly.

Thanks!

in CVS for 2.8.x
Comment 3 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-12-04 13:00:03 UTC
Please, check other ebuilds before removing use flags. Reopened until the issues
are solved.
Comment 4 Saleem Abdulrasool (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-01-08 13:41:59 UTC
All ebuilds depending on pygtk being built with the gnome useflag have been updated.  Marking fixed.
