Description Adam 2004-05-02 15:25:40 UTC

I removed accessibility support from my USE flags, and to removed any 'junk' ebuilds, I looked at the gnome ebuild, and under the depends, was the accessibility USE flag, and gail under it.  I removed gail and nautilus failed to start, so I re-emerged it, but the configure failed, stating that it needed gail.  Remerging gail fixed this problem.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Unmerge Gail
2.  Attempt to reinstall nautilus (gail will not be listed as a dependancy)
3.  remerge gail manually.

eel depends on gail, nautilus on eel.

And no, you shouldn't just remove libs on a live system. That's guaranteed to give problems.
