epiphany-2.14.0 specify a wrong configure option, which is --with-mozilla=mozilla (or firefox, depending on USE flag) but the correct option is --with-gecko=mozilla (or firefox) as you can see in its configure --help. This error, at least on my system, leads to this failure: ---BEGIN--- [CUT] checking whether we have a gtk 2 gecko build... yes checking whether we have a gecko debug build... no checking for gecko version... 1.8 checking for GECKO... yes checking whether we can compile and run XPCOM programs... no configure: error: Cannot compile and run XPCOM programs See `config.log' for more details. !!!

But...my trick didn't fixed it... The weirdness of all this is that if I try to emerge epiphany, it fails at the configure script; BUT if I try to execute the configure script with SAME arguments from the WORKDIR, it exit successfully... It is a problem of my system? I post my emerge info below... Hope this helps... ---BEGIN--- Portage 2.1_pre7-r4 (default-linux/x86/2006.0, gcc-3.4.6, glibc-2.4-r1, 2.6.15-no4 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.15-no4 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.12.0_pre16 dev-lang/python: 2.3.5-r2, 2.4.2-r1 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r2 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O3 -march=i686 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -fforce-addr" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/eselect/compiler /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/splash /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/web2c /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=i686 -pipe" DISTDIR="/mnt/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig buildpkg digest distlocks keepwork metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://ftp.belnet.be/mirror/rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo/" LANG="it_IT.UTF-8" LC_ALL="it_IT.UTF-8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--sort-common -Wl,--enable-new-dtags -Wl,-zdynsort -Wl,--as-needed" LINGUAS="it" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/mnt/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp/portage" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/mnt/portage/overlays/custom /mnt/portage/overlays/xgl/xgl-coffee" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 7zip X a52 aac aalib ace acpi aim alsa amd amr amuled apache2 apm arts audiofile avi bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts bluetooth bonobo bootsplash bzip2 cdda cddb cdparanoia cdr clamav clamd cli cpdflib cpudetection crypt ctype cups curl dba dbus divx4linux dlloader dmx dri dvd dvdr dvdread dvi emboss encode epiphany esd expat fam fastbuild fat fbsplash ffmpeg firefox fltk font-server foomaticdb force-cgi-redirect fortran ftp fuse gatos gd gdbm gif glibc-omitfp glitz glut glx gmail gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 gtkhtml hal imagemagick imap imlib ipod isdnlog java javascript joystick jpeg kad kde lame libclamav libg++ libwww lirc mad maildir matroska mbox memlimit mikmod mime mmx mmx2 mono motif mozilla moznocompose moznoirc moznomail mozsvg mozxmlterm mp3 mpeg mpeg2 mpeg4 mplayer msn msnextras mysql mysqli ncurses nls nptl nptlonly nsplugin ntfs nvidia ogg opengl openssh openssl oss pam pcre pdflib perl plugin png posix pppd python qt quicktime rar readline reiserfs rhythmbox samba sdl sensord session sharedext sharedmem simplexml soap sockets spell spl sqlite sqlite3 sse sse2 ssl svg svga sysfs tagwriting tcpd threads tokenizer truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev unicode usb userlocales utf8 v4l v4l2 vfat vhosts vorbis wifi win32codecs xine xml xosd xprint xsl xslt xv xvid zlib zvbi elibc_glibc input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse kernel_linux linguas_it userland_GNU video_cards_none video_cards_nvidia" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK ---END---
I fixed it...Problem with LDFLAG... By the way, what I posted about configure script is correct. I suggest to fix it...
