if you don't have motif in your use flags and no other installed program had motif in its dependencies (so you don't have it installed), app-text/xpdf-2.02.1 won't compile with x-support. i thought the "X"-use flag should add support for xfree? perhaps you should change DEPEND="motif? ( virtual/x11 virtual/motif ) ..." to DEPEND="motif? ( virtual/x11 virtual/motif ) X? ( virtual/x11 virtual/motif ) ..." Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. remove motif from your use flags 2. emerge -C openmotif 3. USE="X" emerge xpdf Actual Results: 14:52 ~ # xpdf -bash: xpdf: command not found Expected Results: with "X" in the use flags it should compile with x support.

well, i asked that topic in the forum and it covinced me. so this bug can be regarded as closed, at least for my part. http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=109350&highlight=
