If I try and emerge zenity-2.12.1, the configure phase complains of a lack of gnome-doc-utils: checking for gnome-doc-utils >= 0.3.2... Package gnome-doc-utils was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gnome-doc-utils.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'gnome-doc-utils' found configure: error: Library requirements (gnome-doc-utils >= 0.3.2) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them. It can be fixed by emerging gnome-doc-utils. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Unmerge gnome-doc-utils 2. Try to emerge zenity Actual Results: The configure died, complaining of a lack of gnome-doc-utils. Expected Results: Merge gnome-doc-utils, and then continue the merge normally.
