If x11-libs/pixman is not installed, configuration of xen-tools-4.7.1 fails with: configure: error: Package requirements (pixman-1 >= 0.21.8) were not met: No package 'pixman-1' found Reproducible: Didn't try Expected Results: Emerge of xen-tools-4.7.1 should have pulled pixman as a dependency. Manually emerging x11-libs/pixman before xen-tools-4.7.1 fixed the problem for me.
could you provide "emerge --info =app-emulation/xen-tools-4.7.1" and the full build log? as I understand, xen-tools-4.7.1 require pixman if USE=qemu enabled

snip from tools/configure.ac AC_ARG_WITH([system-qemu], AS_HELP_STRING([--with-system-qemu@<:@=PATH@:>@], [Use system supplied qemu PATH or qemu (taken from $PATH) as qemu-xen device model instead of building and installing our own version]),[ case $withval in yes) qemu_xen=n ; qemu_xen_path="qemu-system-i386" qemu_xen_systemd="/usr/bin/env $qemu_xen_path" ;; no) qemu_xen=y ;; *) qemu_xen=n ; qemu_xen_path="$withval" ; qemu_xen_systemd="$qemu_xen_path" ;; esac so the choice is that you can choose either qemu (bundled) or system-qemu, can't disable all of them.. I will adjust the REQUIRED_USE at next revision bump --- a/app-emulation/xen-tools/xen-tools-4.7.1-r3.ebuild +++ b/app-emulation/xen-tools/xen-tools-4.7.1-r3.ebuild @@ -69,7 +69,7 @@ REQUIRED_USE="hvm?

Does the first line make any difference then? hvm? ( || ( qemu system-qemu ) ) This requirement is always fulfilled if we generally expect one of the qemu USE flags to be enabled now. Also will the qemu USE flag be enabled by default? So its still possible to emerge xen-tools without explicitly changing any USE flags?
(In reply to Benjamin Beier from comment #4) good catch! I will adjust -> hvm? ( ^^ ( qemu system-qemu ) ) sounds good to me to enable USE=qemu by default, since this is the default option provided by upstream so, I will include these changes at next revision bump, thanks for the suggestion!
