This is the result of a strange and distribution-hostile decision on upstream's part. I will simply quote the output of shotwell's configure --help: --disable-schemas-install Disable installation of GConf schemas; GSettings schemas are always installed Obviously, shotwell needs to install its schema *source* files (*.gschema.xml). However, on Gentoo (or indeed, on any distro), packages must not install the *compiled* gsettings schema file because there is only one compiled schema file under /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas, and so it cannot belong to any individual package. Instead, the systemwide compiled schemas file is regenerated in pkg_postinst() by the gnome2 eclass. The ebuild will need to work around upstream's silliness, for example by doing sed -e '/glib-compile-schemas $(DESTDIR)/ d' -i Makefile || die in src_prepare().
should be fixed in 0.11.1 (upstream changed the Makefile), please check
(In reply to comment #2) > should be fixed in 0.11.1 (upstream changed the Makefile), please check Yes, it's fixed.
