Currently, the gaim 0.59.6 ebuild requires gtk and glib 2.0, so portage will attempt to downgrade gtk and glib from 2.2 to 2.0 when gaim is merged. I was able to merge gaim with gtk and glib 2.2 with no problem. It runs fine so far. Maybe we should change this gtk2? ( =x11-libs/gtk+-2.0* =dev-libs/glib-2.0* ) to gtk2? ( >=x11-libs/gtk+-2.0* >=dev-libs/glib-2.0* ) ? Arun
Ok, it appears that my last suggestion violates policy. Anyway, gtk 2.2 and glib 2.2 work with gaim.
it doens violate policy and it should be changed, only right now im off to my family so i wont get around to it for a week or so
Cool. Have fun.
OK, I changed the deps to allow gtk and glib 2.2. No biggie. :)
Ah, a note. This is in gaim-0.59.7 which I'm about to commit.
