I get the following error after typing emerge gnome:

Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libgnomeui-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable

I have libglade installed on my system.  Here is the ouput of emerge -s libglade:

Searching...   
[ Results for search key : libglade ]

*  gnome-base/libglade

      Description: GLADE is a interface builder

It shows that libglade 2.0.1 in installed.  Please let me know if you need more info
about my system.

Ok, I just saw that libgnomeui is the one not installed on my system.  However,
after
trying to emerge libgnomeui it has to install gnome-themes first!  So this
still won't work.

I just checked both the ebuild files for both libgnomeui and gnome-themes and
they both have each other listed as dependencies!  Can I delete a line from one
of the ebuilds?

i think gnome-themes can do without, but it is a circular dep. I have removed
it from gnome-themes for now.

Thanks for the report.

Ok, this didn't fix it.  The compile doesn't fail with emerge, it fails with
the configure
script.  gnome-themes has to have libgnomeui installed.  I checked the older
ebuilds for
libgnomeui and there is no requirement for gnome-themes in them, but in
libgnomeui-2.2.0.1 ebuild two theme dependencies have been added.  Are they
*really* needed?

I have been having the same problem all day with this exact ebuild...very
annoying.  I overcame the problem by installing gnome-themes-2.2.  This has
allowed me to install libgnomeui. It is finally compiling and I will hopefully
get gdm installed by the nights end.  Hope that helps you.

I finally just commented out the theme statements in the libgnomeui ebuild and
built it.  It seems to be working just fine.

hmm maybe we should make libgnomeui pdepend on gnome-themes, cause they are
needed

*** Bug 17538 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

i'm leaning towards getting rid of gnome-themes from the libgnomeui's depend
because if we do it the other way round (removing libgnomeui from
gnome-themes), then gnome-themes will not compile.

i say make libgnomeui PDEPEND on gnome-themes. foser?

yep thats the idea and returning the libgnomeui dep to gnome-themes .. 

done in the tree now.
