normalize-0.7.6-r1 has optional xmms support, however, its configure
script autodetects if xmms is installed, and tries to compile in
some xmms related thing, regardless of the USE setting. Inserting
this line should fix it:
use xmms || myconf="${myconf} --disable-xmms"
This fixes the case where you have an xmms installed somewhere, but
do not want normalize to have xmms optional stuff in. And in my
case, I happened to have an xmms binary in /usr/local/bin, but no
headers installed, and it caused the compilation to fail.
Thanks
