you have not unmasked the gnome2.6 mask have you ?
nope i havent
I have also been getting this same error. This is a fresh 2004.0 install of gentoo, ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" I have tried gnome-desktop 2.4.0 with the same result - this bug might be with the headers in libgnomeui-2.4.0.1 ?
no not really... let me see if i can whip up a patch
ok, i just added a fix to portage, please test & let me know if it works.
Took a while to get to the mirrors, but it worked. Thanks :)
