I tried building gnome-extra/gtkhtml-3.12.3 with net-libs/libsoup-2.2.94 installed, but it failed with a number of unresolved symbol errors during linking. Manually upgrading to net-libs/libsoup-2.2.100 and then retrying gnome-extra/gtkhtml-3.12.3 worked. This may be an upstream dependency problem as it was not detected during the configure phase of gtkhtml compilation. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Could you please actually provide the error messages that you got, because a. Unresolved symbols sounds like the symbols do exist in libsoup headers but for some reason the linking phase on your machine doesn't find them - therefore it doesn't sound like a depedency problem to me b. it failing with 2.2.94 and succeeding with 2.2.100 does not mean 2.2.100 is necessary. Something between 2.2.94 and 2.2.100 could work as well, although lower than 2.2.99 are security vulnerable.
(In reply to comment #1) > Could you please actually provide the error messages that you got Unfortunately, no. By the time I thought of it, they were long gone from the scrollback buffer. My apologizes for that.

Wondering if the problem was really that libgnutls got rebuilt at some stage and libsoup didn't pick it up, I just re-emerged the installed libsoup (2.2.94) and gtkhtml-3.12.3 emerged fine after that.
Vic, this kind of errors should be fixed by revdep-rebuild. And speaking about this bug you just proved that gtkhtml compiles/works fine with libsoup-2.2.94. Thus i think that this bug is INVALID. If any additional info will discovered, please, reopen.
