when attempting a revdep-rebuild -L libxcb-xlib.so.0 it gives a list of packages that contains: gnome-base/-MERGING-libgnomekbd:0 Afaik -MERGING-libgnomekbd isn't a package and emerge certainly spits it out as such: emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "gnome-base/-MERGING-libgnomekbd:0". I think something has gone wrong in revdep-rebuild Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.revdep-rebuild -L libxcb-xlib.so.0 2.emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "gnome-base/-MERGING-libgnomekbd:0". 3.Profit!!! Actual Results: Calculating dependencies... done! emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "gnome-base/-MERGING-libgnomekbd:0".

Obviously INVALID. This happens sometimes if you run revdep-rebuild , while emerge is running. You either need to run revdep-rebuild with '-i' or clean its cache.
i'm running revdep rebuild according to the libxcb upgrade guilde: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/x/x11/libxcb-1.4-upgrade-guide.xml Also, I have cleared the *.rr files numerous times. I am currently trying to manually emerge some of the packages but the gnome packages seem to like failing on with /usr/lib/libxcb-xlib.so.0: undefined reference to `_xcb_unlock_io' /usr/lib/libxcb-xlib.so.0: undefined reference to `_xcb_lock_io' Also it comes up in the list of packages to merge like so: gnome-base/libgnomeui gnome-base/librsvg gnome-base/-MERGING-libgnomekbd:0 gnome-base/nautilus gnome-extra/bug-buddy gnome-extra/deskbar-applet
to fix it you just need to emerge libgnomekbd It still shouldn't happen though
This is a bug in revdep-rebuild that has been fixed in subversion and a patch to revdep-rebuild is on bug 338031. The fix will be in the next release.
