I don't think it's 'fixed' that way :p it's a workaround

The ebuild is either missing libgnomecanvas as a dependancy

or upstream should make it a tuneable configure flag (which I think is the right solution, we don't need yet a nother iPod app that only works with gnome, gtkpod was nice and DE independant) I'll file a bug about this upstream too.

thanks, I fixed the dependencies on gtkpod for real now.

Is there any news from upstream about removing libgnomecanvas dependency?
