When building chromium I get the following error: Package gnome-keyring-1 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gnome-keyring-1.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'gnome-keyring-1' found Traceback (most recent call last): File "build/gyp_chromium", line 97, in <module> sys.exit(gyp.main(args)) File "./tools/gyp/pylib/gyp/__init__.py", line 445, in main options.circular_check) File "./tools/gyp/pylib/gyp/__init__.py", line 84, in Load depth, generator_input_info, check, circular_check) File "./tools/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py", line 2125, in Load depth, check) File "./tools/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py", line 408, in LoadTargetBuildFile includes, depth, check) File "./tools/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py", line 408, in LoadTargetBuildFile includes, depth, check) File "./tools/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py", line 408, in LoadTargetBuildFile includes, depth, check) File "./tools/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py", line 408, in LoadTargetBuildFile includes, depth, check) File "./tools/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py", line 366, in LoadTargetBuildFile build_file_path) File "./tools/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py", line 953, in ProcessVariablesAndConditionsInDict build_file) File "./tools/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py", line 968, in ProcessVariablesAndConditionsInList ProcessVariablesAndConditionsInDict(item, is_late, variables, build_file) File "./tools/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py", line 927, in ProcessVariablesAndConditionsInDict ProcessConditionsInDict(the_dict, is_late, variables, build_file) File "./tools/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py", line 804, in ProcessConditionsInDict variables, build_file) File "./tools/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py", line 946, in ProcessVariablesAndConditionsInDict build_file, key) File "./tools/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py", line 953, in ProcessVariablesAndConditionsInDict build_file) File "./tools/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py", line 972, in ProcessVariablesAndConditionsInList expanded = ExpandVariables(item, is_late, variables, build_file) File "./tools/gyp/pylib/gyp/input.py", line 639, in ExpandVariables (contents, p.returncode)) Exception: Call to 'pkg-config --cflags gnome-keyring-1' returned exit status 1. while loading dependencies of base/base.gyp while loading dependencies of net/net.gyp while loading dependencies of app/app.gyp while loading dependencies of build/all.gyp while trying to load build/all.gyp (That's the whole build.log so I won't be attaching it.) Needless to say, I don't have gnome-keyring installed (using KDE). I would therefore be most happy if it was made optional instead of just adding a dep.
Uh, sorry I missed that. There was some early warning about added gnome-keyring dependency, but my check didn't detect the new dependency. So, at this point it's hard to make it optional (upstream development seems to be GNOME-centric), but it's on my radar (feel free to file a bug - preferably upstream - and give me the link).
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=12351 When The corresponding changes will be made in ebilds? I use KDE and do not see any justification install packages from Gnome.
(In reply to comment #2) > http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=12351 > When The corresponding changes will be made in ebilds? Could you explain more what change should be made to the ebuild? Also, please open a new bug, it's going to be easier to track. > I use KDE and do not see > any justification install packages from Gnome. Hopefully the dependency will become fully optional. For now it's needed at compile time, but after you have compiled the browser you should be able to remove gnome-keyring from your system. Also, please note that chromium depends on gconf anyway. If you have some patches to make some of these dependencies optional, I'd be happy to help you get them upstream.
Please, reopen. It is clearly NOT optional as of www-client/chromium-6.0.472.59 (current stable). DEPEND="... >=gnome-base/gnome-keyring-2.28.2 ..."
meh, nevermind, I'll possibly track bug 335758
