Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: In the RDEPEND Variable of the ebuild it should probably say: >=x11-libs/gtk+-2.4.4 instead of: >=x11-libs/gtk+-2.4
I don't think so, you compiled gtk+-2.4.1 with xinerama support back then, but ditched it later on and now you get the linking problems. Upgrading just rebuilds & relinks without the xinerama support & then ofcourse it works.
This is possible too. Because it was a new install, I probably used the precompiled gtk+ package of the 2004.2-package-CD. So if that package is compiled with xinerama support, you are right.
