Description Douglas Breault 2005-12-22 14:45:20 UTC

GConf cannot emerge without indent and as such dev-util/indent should be a dependency of gconf. Here is the output of emerge on a machine without indent, as the compile fails.

i unmerged indent and then emerge gconf-2.12.1.

everything went smoothly.

in configure.in it even states:

"
# We would like indent, but don't require it.
AC_CHECK_PROG(INDENT, indent, indent)
"
