Description Harris Landgarten 2017-12-05 00:03:23 UTC

nodejs and possibly snapper now require >=icu-59

webkit-gtk:2 requires icu-58 and will not build with icu-60. This also breaks gnucash with depends on webkit-gtk:2 and will not run or build the icu-60 installed.

I strongly suggest we need a slot for icu:58

please create one ticket per package.

 nodejs-0.12.17.ebuild : DEPEND -=- icu? ( dev-libs/icu )
   nodejs-4.8.5.ebuild : DEPEND -=- icu? ( >=dev-libs/icu-55:= )
   nodejs-6.9.4.ebuild : DEPEND -=- icu? ( >=dev-libs/icu-56:= )
  nodejs-6.11.5.ebuild : DEPEND -=- icu? ( >=dev-libs/icu-56:= )
  nodejs-6.12.2.ebuild : DEPEND -=- icu? ( >=dev-libs/icu-58.2:= )
   nodejs-8.9.3.ebuild : DEPEND -=- icu? ( >=dev-libs/icu-59.1:= )
   nodejs-9.2.1.ebuild : DEPEND -=- icu? ( >=dev-libs/icu-59:= )
   nodejs-9.3.0.ebuild : DEPEND -=- icu? ( >=dev-libs/icu-60.1:= )
nodejs-99999999.ebuild : DEPEND -=- icu? ( >=dev-libs/icu-60.1:= )

You should be able to pick one of those and locally mask what you don't want.

Comment 3 Harris Landgarten 2017-12-19 14:22:48 UTC

The issue is the webkit-gtk:2 dependency on icu:58

There is a patch that lets it build with icu:60 but it is not in the tree

I wasn't able to find such a dependency in the webkit-gtk:2 ebuild.

So isn't this rather a duplicate of bug 621532?

Comment 6 Harris Landgarten 2017-12-19 23:43:59 UTC

yes, that is where I got the patch for webkit-gtk:2.
