It seems like gconf-1.0.9 doesn't list dependency to gnome-base/oaf. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge gnome-base/gconf-1.0.9 2. 3. Actual Results: Ebuild fails with finding oaf-config. Expected Results: Successfull build. If I manually emerge oaf-0.6.10 before emerging gconf-1.0.9 everything works as expected. OAF is a core gnome library and I shouldn't have to place it in my world file. Please fix this, it should be fairly easy.
I don't know if you are using dep-clean or something similar, but gconf-1.0.9 has a dep on oaf.
First I used emerge depclean, and it stated that oaf was no longer needed. Then I ran revdep-rebuild, and it states that gconf is missing libraries, but trying to run the revdep script blocks my install of gconf since oaf-config isn't anywhere to be found. Maybe I should've just ran emerge without the "--nodeps" argument (from revdep-rebuild) to get things working again?
