Bug 23865 – net-irc/xchat-2.0.2 : use flag "gtk2" is not honored, even though the program is gtk 2

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Danny Milosavljevic 2003-07-02 04:48:22 UTC]

In the net-irc/xchat-2.0.2-r2 ebuild the use flag "gtk2" is not honored, even 
though the program is gtk 2.

*sarcasm* Is the "gtk2" use flag not used anymore because all the programs 
already are gtk 2 compatible ? *end sarcasm*

to fix, change
"use gtk" to "use gtk2"
and 
IUSE="......gtk....."  to ISUE=".....gtk2...."

If the "gtk2" use flag is discontinued, please tell me how the preferred way of 
distinguishing whether to use gtk 1 or gtk 2 is now.

(I stumbled over that because I did: USE="-gtk gtk2" to mask out all gtk 1 
programs, and only include gtk 2 programs)



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. USE="-gtk gtk2" emerge xchat
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
xchat-text is the only program built

Expected Results:  
xchat-2 executeable with the graphical (gtk 2) frontend and
xchat-text executeable for the text (console) mode irc client
