Description Dmitry Ivankov 2009-01-19 20:40:49 UTC

I guess most people use pidgin gui, so +gtk default would be nice and less confusing.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.eselect profile show
2.portageq envvar USE
3.USE="-gtk +ncurses" emerge pidgin
4.pidgin



Actual Results:  
1.Tested with 
/usr/portage/profiles/default/linux/amd64/2008.0
and
/usr/portage/profiles/default/linux/x86/2008.0
2.no gtk, but ncurses is present
3.No warnings after emerge (while -gtk -ncurses will give a warning)
4.Pidgin doesn't run because it's not installed with -gtk

Expected Results:  
Pidgin binary or at least some warning about +gtk flag.
