When I try to emerge new KDE [kde-base/kde-3.1.2], kde-base/arts-1.1.2 fail to emerge. It gives an error message libtool: link: warning: `-version-info' is ignored for programs /usr/lib/libfontconfig.so.1: undefined reference to `FT_Get_BDF_Property' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status I went into the source dir [/var/tmp/portage/arts-1.1.2/work/arts-1.1.2] and found [/qtmcop] is the culprit. After search on the net about 'FT_Get_BDF_Property', I changed Makefile to link 'freetype' along with 'qt'. After that, I can run 'make' successfully. It looks like 'configure' is not finding the dependency correctly. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge kde-base/arts 2. 3. Actual Results: libtool: link: warning: `-version-info' is ignored for programs /usr/lib/libfontconfig.so.1: undefined reference to `FT_Get_BDF_Property' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Expected Results: Should have compiled it.
Apparently your qt is not good. Could you try remerging qt. Linking freetype along with qt should not be necessary.
This is a mislinking problem at the user's side.
