Description Brad Grzesiak 2004-01-16 15:27:57 UTC 
During the ./configure section of emerge epiphany, after it checks for mozilla version, the ebuild errors out with the message:

checking for mozilla version... 1.6
configure: error:
*****************************************************************************
Epiphany can be built using Mozilla 1.4, 1.5a, 1.5b, 1.5 or
trunk snapshot, but the version available is 1.6.

When using Mozilla trunk snapshot, a successful build is not guaranteed due
to the frequently changing state of the Mozilla interfaces and the limited
resources of the Epiphany team to support non-release Mozilla snapshots.
*****************************************************************************

!!! ERROR: net-www/epiphany-1.0.6 failed.
!!! Function econf, Line 339, Exitcode 1
!!! econf failed

This is kind of big since epiphany is installed with gnome.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  emerge mozilla-1.6
2.  emerge epiphany-1.0.6 (currently the most up-to-date)

Actual Results:  
Errored out.

Expected Results:  
emerged epiphany or warned that a blocking version of mozilla existed

checking for mozilla version... 1.6
configure: error:

This is not a bug. It's designed not to build against anything it hasn't been tested for, mark as wontfix please
Comment 2 Brad Grzesiak 2004-01-17 11:39:03 UTC 
Re Comment #1:
True, but ebuild for epiphany should show that mozilla-1.6 blocks it.
Comment 3 Vittorio Colao 2004-01-18 07:43:41 UTC 
epiphany-1.0.7 is out and works well with mozilla-1.6 .
Comment 4 Spider (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-01-18 13:51:25 UTC 
epiphany 1.0.7 is in the tree, ~ masked.  tested against moz 1.5 and 1.6, works nicely.

 Seems mozilla got a bit faster with resizing in this release.
