=================================================================

It *does* depend on imake - read the ebuild. Reopen with 'emerge -pv virtual/x11' and 'grep -Rni "virtual/x11" /etc/portage/' output.

Perhaps this problem is related to the way portage checks for dependencies.

If one does
# emerge -C imake xfig
# emerge -avuD xfig

Then imake is _not_ re-emerged, and the build of xfig will fail. (even though 'equery g xfig | grep imake' clearly shows imake as a dependency)

I suspect many people are running into this problem when upgradinng to the new x11 setup.  Perhaps it is not a problem with xfig, specifically, but it does need to be addressed.

Well, here this command doesn't give me anything with xfig-3.2.4-r2 and xorg-7.0 (donwgraded from xorg-7.1) while emerge imake before xfig solve my problem.

I don't understand very well this part of the ebuild :
DEPEND="${RDEPEND}
        || ( ( x11-misc/imake
                        app-text/rman
                        x11-proto/xproto
                        x11-proto/inputproto )
                virtual/x11 )"
Could someone explain please ?

Thanks a lot

Unmerge virtual/x11.
