Emerging gnome; depends on epiphany. epiphany fails with the following error and call stack: !!! ERROR: www-client/epiphany-2.16.2 failed. Call stack: ebuild.sh, line 1614: Called dyn_compile ebuild.sh, line 971: Called qa_call 'src_compile' environment, line 3688: Called src_compile epiphany-2.16.2.ebuild, line 75: Called gnome2_src_compile gnome2.eclass, line 70: Called gnome2_src_configure gnome2.eclass, line 66: Called econf '--disable-scrollkeeper' '--with-mozilla=firefox' '--enable-python' '--disable-gtk-doc' ebuild.sh, line 577: Called die Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. # emerge -av epiphany Actual Results: ebuild.sh Called die Expected Results: installed epiphany
only thing I changed was to open Firefox before building; it seems to work fine now.
Please paste the compile output from above the !!! ERROR line, what you have pasted is useless.
I can't reproduce it now, since it's installed. Sorry.

*** Bug 282616 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
In my case, this was fixed after running revdep-rebuild which fixed a broken link in net-libs/xulrunner. After that, epiphany was installed correctly.
