seems 0.8 is out for a week now, so the one who would fix this would certainly bump version at the same time
and 0.8 has the same imlib2 pb/message that 0.6
Created attachment 24825 [details] updated libcaca ebuild libcaca has a configure option to disable support for imlib2. But since there is no global use flag for imlib2, I just set imlib2 as a dependency.
I had already created a 0.6 ebuild which checked these flags bug #34965 This was not taken into consideration when the 0.2 build was upgraded to 0.6 unfortunately. 0.9 indeed has the --disable-doc flag refered to in that bug report btw.
latest 0.9 in cvs should have this fixed
