the ebuild for xemacs look at the use variable 'x' to add the dependency to openmotif. I think that it should look a the 'motif' variable. with USE "-motif" xemacs should build with it's own widget set and you dont need motif (xemacs is heavy enough like this!). I changed the line X? ( virtual/x11 >=x11-libs/openmotif-2.1.30 ) to motif? ( virtual/x11 >=x11-libs/openmotif-2.1.30 ) And it worked for me. Maybe the X variable should add a dependency to x11.
Howdy, if you ldd /usr/bin/xemacs, do you see the openmotif stuff linked in even though motif is not in USE? Matt
