The configure script for gnomesword died, suggesting an install of xulrunner. After merging xulrunner, gnomesword-2.3.1 merged correctly. Here's the error without xulrunner: configure: error: No gecko found; you may need to adjust PKG_CONFIG_PATH or install a mozilla/firefox/xulrunner -devel package !!!

do you have mozilla-firefox or seamonkey installed?
(In reply to comment #1) > do you have mozilla-firefox or seamonkey installed? No. Only firefox-bin. I also have -gnome, which is probably a little odd, too.
Alright, added dep for xulrunner || firefox || seamonkey in -r1
