Created attachment 371182 [details] ebuild without gvfs dependency Heya, I tried updating my x11-libs/libfm from 0.1.17 to 1.1.4 today. However, since I want automount support via udisks, emerge wants to install gvfs. Now, since I'm trying to avoid gnome3, I'm also trying to avoid gvfs and, looking at configure scipt of the libfm sources, it doesn't mention gvfs at all. Indeed, installing libfm-1.1.4 via the attached ebuild builds it with udisks support but without gvfs (but I didn't test hotplugging disks yet).
gvfs isn't a build time dependency - it's pure runtime via either glib calls that have their default backends in gvfs or dbus calls. See the discussion in bug 438700.
