renaming the 0.27.2 ebuild to 0.28 does the trick...

You also need to add dev-perl/XML-Parse to ${DEPEND}.

The perl module in intltool-0.28 is installed by default in /usr/share/intltool/XML/Parser/Style/OrigTree.pm... Perhaps it might be better to install it in /usr/lib/perl5/...

The plan is to wait for a new intltool release and skip 0.28 because its buggy and introduces unneeded deps.

[Comment 3 Stephane Loeuillet 2004-01-19 18:37:00 UTC]

well, you were right, once more.

0.29 is out.  it does not use anymore this OrigTree.pm perl module

unfortunatly, lots of gnome packages where generated using version 0.28 (like scrollkeeper 0.3.13, libgnomedb-1.0.3, gok-0.9.4, gdm 2.4.4.6, ...)

[Comment 4 Jeremy Huddleston (RETIRED) 2004-01-19 19:02:36 UTC]

for those packages, we can just do something like this:

src_unpack() {
        unpack ${A}

        cd ${S}
        intltoolize --force
}

of course we still have to add dev-util/intltool to ${DEPEND} for this... but I think that is probably better than installing this perl module and allowing intltool inconsistencies...

I added intltool 0.29 to the tree, added an XML-Parser dep.

@ devs, if intltool using packages check for XML-Parser make it dep on intltool-0.29 and up. The configure.in file might not reflect this change (which imho is an upstream  bug), do double check if it needs XML-Parser and fix the inltool dep accordingly.
