There is already a bug report of this in gtkmm: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtkmm-list/2006-June/msg00153.html Apparently the option should be given as -l cpp and not as -lcpp. I tried just changing this in Makefile.am files, but emerge seems to regenerate all of them in the beginning of the merging and I couldn't find anything pointing to this either in configure. Could you also point out where the fix should be done, I'd like to learn. (It just might mean less work for you later on someday...) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Just try to emerge libbonobomm-1.3.8.
