while updateing gtk+ now gnome-icon-theme is required, but I got from the log: setup unpack >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking gnome-icon-theme-1.2.0.tar.bz2 to /var/tmp/portage/gnome-icon-theme-1.2.0/work >>> Source unpacked. compile configure: WARNING: If you wanted to set the --build type, don't use --host.

Same thing with gnome-icon-theme version 1.2.1
There is missing dependency to XML::Parser perl module. I've worked around this problem by doing 'emerge XML-Parser'. To repeat the problem: Install Gentoo from 2004.1 precompiled packages (incl xfree, gnome and kde) emerge sync emerge --update world I have build logs for gnome-icon-theme-1.2.1 package, but they are now on another machine, so if anybody needs them, let me know, I can upload them later.
I have installed : nhh221 ~ # qpkg -I -v XML dev-libs/libxml2-2.6.7 * dev-perl/XML-Parser-2.34 *
gnome-icon-theme has an intltool dep, which brings in xml-parser. You probably forgot to update your perl modules after a perl upgrade. (read perl ebuild)
please re-emerge XML-Parser & try again.. although i think that specific problem should yield another error.
no, re-emerge XML-Parser does not resolve the problem. BTW it was a nearly fresh installation so updating perl modules should not be needed, isn't it ?
no, but i really didn't think that was the problem anyway. can you try gnome-icon-theme-1.2.1 instead.. it might be some problem with the way it got packed up.
from the log :-) checking for a BSD-compatible install... /bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes /var/tmp/portage/gnome-icon-theme-1.2.1/work/gnome-icon-theme-1.2.1/missing: Unknown `--run' option Try `/var/tmp/portage/gnome-icon-theme-1.2.1/work/gnome-icon-theme-1.2.1/missing --help' for more information configure: WARNING: `missing' script is too old or missing checking for gawk... gawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
well the problem is sort of obvious, for some reason the missing script doesn't work as expected on your setup. But i have no idea why that would happen, please check it out yourself.
probleme solves for me after downgrade XML-Parser from 1.34 to 1.31_r1
it works fine for me with 2.34 (i guess thats what you meant).. so if you upgrade do you get the same problem again ?
I can confirm that downgrading XML-Parser solves the problem. The warning message about 'missing' remains but the ebuild now no longer fails.
seems to be changes in XML-Parser itself then.. maybe the perl team could have a look ?
Module code changes over time. If the newer version doesn't work for you - don't dep it. We don't clean out older versions if they are still in use. This isn't a bug per se, but a change in the module's functionality that is in conflict with gnome-icon-theme. Maybe the gnome-icon-theme developers will fix this in there next release...?
Closing since this has sat for six months now.
