Description Ben Lamothe 2003-02-11 16:24:05 UTC
I merged gnome, and nautilus wouldn't merge.  I installed nautilus from source using 
prefix="/usr/share" successfully, but gnome didn't recognize it.  I even put the nautilus tarball 
in /usr/portage/disfiles, just in case the tarball portage was downloading was defective, and that 
still didn't fix the problem. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Emerge GNOME 
2.Then the quicktime4linux error comes up, inject it and the nautilus errors will come up, inject 
them and install them from source with prefix="/usr/share" and GNOME still doesn't know its 
there. 
3. 
Actual Results:  
I didn't have nautilus enabled for gnome			 

Expected Results:  
merged nautilus with gnome.

use the ebuilds, i cannot support installing packs by hand ofcourse. Come back with the problems you're seeing with the ebuilds.
