I've recently switched over to using the Gentoo Xfce overlay as I am curious about the next version of Xfce. I have the 'cups' USE flag set on the xfce-base/xfce4-9999 package from the overlay, which pulls in xfce-base/xfprint-9999. The latter package fails during the configure stage, reporting it requires xfconf. This is a library that is not currently available in the Gentoo xfce overlay, but is available from the upstream svn repository. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add the Gentoo xfce overlay through layman 2. Enable the 'cups' USE flag for the package xfce-base/xfce4-9999 3. emerge xfce-base/xfce4-9999 (or just emerge xfce-base/xfprint-9999) Actual Results: >>> Emerging (5 of 7) xfce-base/xfprint-9999 to / * checking ebuild checksums ;-) ...

added xfconf and fixed xfprint, xfce4-session and xfce-utils
(In reply to comment #1) > added xfconf and fixed xfprint, xfce4-session and xfce-utils > Hi Christoph, Thanks! All works now, and I see that the xkb errors I was getting were because of the infamous --as-needed LDFLAG, I should should have known. Double Thanks! Regards, Joshua
