The ebuild for xfce4-menueditor-1.05 has the deprecated package name for the xfce4 base listed in the dependencies. See the exerpt from the ebuild below: RDEPEND=">=x11-libs/gtk+-2.0.6 dev-libs/libxml2 xfce-base/xfce4-base" The current naming scheme refers to all base ebuilds for xfce4 simply as xfce-base/xfce4. So the ebuild should look like this: RDEPEND=">=x11-libs/gtk+-2.0.6 dev-libs/libxml2 xfce-base/xfce4" I tried editing the ebuild myself to name the proper package, and it satisfied the dependencies enough for portage to download the source, but then I got a 'Digest Verification Failed' error message, probably because the modified ebuild was five characters smaller in total file size than the original ebuild. Since this is the package that allows users to edit the popup desktop programs menu that users access by right-clicking the xfce4 desktop, this tiny error breaks a major feature of the DE, the ability to customize the programs menu. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.open ebuild in editor 2. 3. Actual Results: Detailed in summary Expected Results: system should have compiled the xfce4-menueditor package against the newer xfce4.2.2 base
Created attachment 68950 [details] An edited ebuild that lists the correct package dependencies This is the edited ebuild file that correctly names the newer xfce4 base package. I appended the -r1 to the end of the file name while I was making a copy, I don't know if that's the proper syntax. Feel free to change it.
the menu editor is built in versions > 4.0. this package is deprecated guess I missed a blocker.
