When I try to emerge kxmleditor with the -arts useflag it fails to use it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. USE="-arts" 2.

The problem is that the configure is generated with a kde-common/admin old version that doesn't provide the --without-arts flag. A solution should be to use a new admin dir, recreate the configure and patch the older. I'm doing this and try it this work. I'll let you know.
I've did it and it seems to work, at least it don't check for mcopidl anymore and it compiles well (but I have the arts stuff installed so I don't know if it compiles without them, because I don't know if kxmleditor need them, but I don't think so) The problem is that the configure is 1Mb big and a patch is quite the same because a lot of lines has changed. So a better solution will be to use an external patch.
another not -arts capable app :| btw. my welcome bite Simone: Patches <=20k go into cvs, bigger patches "elsewhere"
Created attachment 40783 [details, diff] kxmleditor-1.1.3.ebuild This is a "big" patch. The compressed configure patch takes 80Kb. I've made an ebuild that will apply it, the tar.bz2 containing the patch is on my web space. I've emerged the kdelibs with +arts so it's quite difficult to make a real test. I hope that cyber mans can test it. Of course you have to recreate the digest of the ebuild.
cyber mans: any news? Have you tested the attached ebuild? So if it works we can fix it in CVS, and I'll suggest upstream to update their admin dir.
Committed the fix in CVS (not the attached but a smaller one like in kdirstat and kamix). Also sended a mail upstream.
