When I emerge gambas there's a blocker, caused by the recent split of poppler into several packages. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge -vat gambas 2. have any of the poppler-* packages in your system 3. see the blockers Actual Results: The package can't be emerged due to blockers Expected Results: The package should emerge When I emerge gambas there's a blocker, caused by the recent split of poppler into several packages, I think that the dependency needs to be fixed to it depends now in virtual/poppler-qt3 instead.
Created attachment 190057 [details] fixed dev-util/gambas/gambas-2.11.1.ebuild deps corrected, it now depends on virtual/poppler-qt3 when USE=pdf is set
Sounds like a plan. As it is a maintainer-needed package you are free to fix it :)

I just installed it because I am writing a translation po file for xt7 player (not in portage) and it's written in gambas. I am no portage developer either, just a forum staffer. By the way, and in case someone is watching this: I was unable to compile gambas due to some error about the HttpClient class until I enabled the "curl" use flag. I guess that the simplest option would be to eliminate the "curl" use flag, and make the dependency on curl mandatory.
