I have tried several times to get this merlin package to install, but it just doesnt seem to want to recognize rep-gtk on my system. several others are having the same issue: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=16859&highlight=merlin bash-2.05b# emerge sawfish-merlin Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) x11-wm/sawfish-merlin-1.0.1-r2 to / >>> md5 ;-) sawfish-1.0.1.tar.gz >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking sawfish-1.0.1.tar.gz patching file capplet/sawmill-capplet.c patching file lisp/Makefile.in patching file x.c >>> Source unpacked. esd nls creating cache ./config.cache checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking for gcc... gcc checking whether the C compiler (gcc -march=athlon -O3 -pipe ) works... yes checking whether the C compiler (gcc -march=athlon -O3 -pipe ) is a cross-compiler... no checking whether we are using GNU C... yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E checking for a BSD compatible install... /bin/install -c checking whether ln -s works... yes checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes checking whether gcc needs -traditional... no checking for xdr_void in -lnsl... yes checking for bind in -lsocket... no checking for X... libraries /usr/X11R6/lib, headers /usr/X11R6/include checking for dnet_ntoa in -ldnet... no checking for dnet_ntoa in -ldnet_stub... no checking for gethostbyname... yes checking for connect... yes checking for remove... yes checking for shmat... yes checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE... yes checking for ANSI C header files... yes checking whether time.h and sys/time.h may both be included... yes checking for sys/wait.h that is POSIX.1 compatible... yes checking for fcntl.h... yes checking for sys/time.h... yes checking for sys/utsname.h... yes checking for unistd.h... yes checking for memory.h... yes checking for X11/SM/SMlib.h... yes checking for X11/extensions/Xdbe.h... yes checking for XineramaQueryScreens in -lXinerama... yes checking for X11/extensions/Xinerama.h... yes checking for rep - version >= 0.14... version 0.16.1 checking for GNU msgfmt... /usr/bin/msgfmt checking for correct rep-gtk version... no configure: error: You need rep-gtk version 0.14+ !!!

*** Bug 14383 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
how about bump the version ? merlin-1.1-2.tgz is available
just change to this DEPEND="=x11-libs/rep-gtk-0.15*
Installing rep-gtk-0.15 instead of 17 does fix the bug. Thank you for your time! (leaving bug open - dont know if I should close it or not)
fixed in cvs thx
