Without pkgconfig emerged, ./configure fails here when emerging xcompmgr ./configure: line 3949: syntax error near unexpected token `XCOMPMGR,' ./configure: line 3949: `PKG_CHECK_MODULES(XCOMPMGR, xcomposite xfixes xdamage xrender)' pkgconfig is somehow not in the dependancy tree of xcompmgr. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge xcompmgr without pkgconfig installed. 2. 3. Actual Results: ./configure: line 3949: syntax error near unexpected token `XCOMPMGR,' ./configure: line 3949: `PKG_CHECK_MODULES(XCOMPMGR, xcomposite xfixes xdamage xrender)' Expected Results: emerge xcompmgr should emerge pkgconfig if it is not already installed. See link. Although instruction is for Kdrive, but it has a note about xcompmgr also, which is: If you're getting errors mentioning PKG_CHECK_MODULES(), install pkgconfig. I emerged that and it worked.
fixed in CVS
