Description Benoît Giraudou 2005-12-08 07:34:39 UTC

gnome-base/oaf is not a dependancy of gconf, if oaf is not installed configure
abort on this line when emerging gconf :
checking for OAF - version >= 0.2.0... no
*** The oaf-config script installed by OAF could not be found
*** If OAF was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in
*** your path, or set the OAF_CONFIG environment variable to the
*** full path to oaf-config.
configure: error: OAF not found or too old

gconf ebuild should have oaf as a dependancy.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
