Full Text Bug Listing

Trying to emerge net-www/galeon-1.3.16 results in the following error:

Requested 'libxml-2.0 >= 2.6.6' but version of libXML is 2.6.4

...

configure: error: Library requirements (...) 		  
not met;

!!! ERROR: net-www/galeon-1.3.16 failed.
!!! Function econf, Line 362, Exitcode 1
!!! econf failed

I think that the net-www/galeon/galeon-1.3.16.ebuild is buggy, as it only 
checks for the availability of 

>=dev-libs/libxml2-2.4

but needs, as the error above shows version 2.6.6

Funny is that the command produces the following output:

bash-2.05b# etcat -v libxml2
[ Results for search key           : libxml2 ]
[ Candidate applications found : 4 ]

Why doesn't etcat -v see my installed package libxml2 ?


Reproducible: Didn't try
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to emerge net-www/galeon-1.3.16
2. Have only installed libxml2 2.6.4
3.

Actual Results:  
see "Details" above 

Expected Results:  
Before galeon-1.3.16 installation the ebuild should verify, that  
libxml-2.0 >= 2.6.6 is installed.

Fixed ebuild

According to the configure-script, it really needs >=2.6.6 (maybe some dev has
not seen this change of dependencies when doing a version bump of this
package?).

As for etcat -v, it doesn't show your installed libxml2-version as the ebuild
has already been removed from your portage tree.

changed in portage. thanks.

When i try to "emerge galeon" once again with the fixed ebuild, 
I get the following result:

[cut]

[cut]

Now the problem in the "galeon-1.3.16.ebuild" is

[cut]

RDEPEND=
        >=gnome-base/libbonoboui-2.1.1

[cut]

Are there perhaps even more unresolved dependencies not taken care of?
I could fix that myself, but i don't want to as i think i am a newbie 
regarding "gentoo linux". 

I hope I've fixed now all wrong dependencies in the 1.3.17 ebuild.
