the configure of emerge -v media-sound/kwave results in checking for id3lib... configure: error: id3lib seems not to be installed or too old ! You can download id3lib from http://id3lib.sourceforge.net/ and fetch the latest version from there. If you download the rpm package, please don't forget to fetch id3tag-devel too, it is needed for compiling Kwave! Note: at least version 3.8.1 is needed. however, if you change to /var/tmp/portage/media-sound/kwave-0.7.9/work/kwave-0.7.9 and do a ./configure yourself, id3lib is properly identified. after that, kwave builds correctly same with paludis -i media-sound/kwave emerge --info Portage 2.1.3_rc1 (default-linux/x86/2007.0/desktop, gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.5-r2, 2.6.18-suspend2 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.18-suspend2 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1400MHz Gentoo Base System release 1.12.10 Timestamp of tree: Fri, 03 Aug 2007 08:00:01 +0000 distcc 2.18.3 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled] ccache version 2.4 [enabled] dev-java/java-config: 1.3.0-r2, 2.0.32 dev-lang/python: 2.4.4-r4 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: 2.4-r2 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.18.1 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10 sys-devel/binutils: 2.17 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.16 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.23b virtual/os-headers: 2.6.21 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium-m -pipe -ftracer -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -msse" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/X11/xkb / usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/gconf /etc/php/apache2-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cgi -php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cli-php5/ext-active/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/web2c" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium-m -pipe -ftracer -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -msse -fvisibility-inlines-hidden" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="ccache confcache distlocks metadata-transfer parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orpha ns" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/mirror/gentoo" LANG="en_US.utf8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,--as-needed" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --del ete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages --filte r=H_**/files/digest-*" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/portage/local/layman/portage-xgl" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X acl acpi alsa arts berkdb bitmap-fonts cairo cdr cli cracklib crypt cups dbus dri dvd dvdr dvdread eds emboss encode esd evo exif fam firefox fortran gdbm gif gpm gstreamer gtk hal iconv imagemagick ipv6 i sdnlog jpeg kde kdeenablefinal kdehiddenvisibility kerberos kipi ldap libg++ mad midi mikmod mmx mp3 mpeg mudflap ncurses nls nptl nptlonly ogg opengl openmp oss pam pcmcia pcre pdf perl pic png pppd python qt qt 3 qt3support qt4 quicktime readline reflection sdl session spell spl sse sse2 ssl subversion svg tcpd tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode vorbis win32codecs x86 xinerama xml xorg xv zlib" ALSA_CARDS= "ali5451 als4000 atiixp atiixp-modem bt87x ca0106 cmipci emu10k1 emu10k1x ens1370 ens1371 es1938 es1968 fm 801 hda-intel intel8x0 intel8x0m maestro3 trident usb-audio via82xx via82xx-modem ymfpci" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS ="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear mete r mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse evdev" K ERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" USERLAND ="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="fbdev nvidia vesa nv" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FL AGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -v kwave or paludis -i kwave 2. 3.

my version of id3lib is 3.8.3-r5
Please run "emerge -uDN world" to update to the latest versions. You're running unstable anyway and for me, on an unstable version, kwave finds id3lib-3.8.3-r5 and emerges just fine.
No response and it works for me.
