[Description Alan Jones 2006-11-02 06:55:18 UTC]

Hal fails here with the following error

checking for PACKAGE... configure: error: Package requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.6.0, gobject-2.0 >= 2.6.0, dbus-glib-1 >= 0.33, dbus-1 >= 0.33) were not met:

No package 'dbus-glib-1' found

Here's my emerge info

I'll try unmasking dbus-glib to see if it resolves the issue.

Cheers,

Alan.

Ok - unmasking and emerging dbus-glib fixes the problem - so it seems it just needs the extra dependency.

I also noticed my dbus was unmasked which I hadn't remembered doing.

Cheers,

Alan.

Don't unmask packages without expecting breakage.

[Comment 3 Alan Jones 2006-11-03 01:30:03 UTC]

sure thing, but shouldn't I report it anyway? Otherwise how do you know it's ready for unmasking?

[Comment 4 Doug Goldstein (RETIRED) 2006-11-03 05:50:41 UTC]

because I know it's not ready for unmasking since the mask message specifically says it's currently not going to work.... And because I know where the issues are.

alrighty - my bad. It said needed testing so I was just trying to do my bit. Apologies for the wasted time.
