I've synced portage, and did emerge -avuND world. The output shows some dependency corruption for xfce-base/xfwm4-4.6.1 package. See attachments for details. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge --sync 2. emerge -avuND world Actual Results: dependency errors/warnings show up Expected Results: world is updated without dependency errors/warnings

huh? paste your emerge --info please. It makes not much sense to me.

Well, it makes not much sense to me. In comment #2, for some reason the DEPEND is expanded to ">=xfce-base/libxfce4util-" which would happen if you had Revision 1.9 of the xfwm4 ebuild because that still used xfce4.eclass which set $XFCE_VERSION and used such a variable in DEPEND. http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/xfce-base/xfwm4/xfwm4-4.6.1.ebuild?r1=1.9&r2=1.10 No eclass, no variable, => this problem. BUT comment #7 shows that you are using the latest revision. So, that theory is out. Now, I guess you could be using an overlay that has some crappy xfwm4 ebuild in it. Which is why I asked for your emerge --info in comment #4 Lastly, comment #1 confirms that DEPEND looks good. So, leads me back to no clue...you broke something on your system??
My greatest apologies. I've used my own patched xfwm4 from my overlay (as you said, crappy one). I didn't change the eclass in the ebuild. I totally didn't put this together, I'm sorry. You can close this bug as invalid.

Well, it was my patch for switching windows I've filed into xfce's bugzilla http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5463. It wasn't taken yet, seems like it's no big deal for most users, so probably no need to push this into ebuild.
