please rebuild libnotify as the ewarn/elog pointed out when you upgraded to gnome 2.16 I really would appreciate to do a version bump on libnotify for such changes, because i'll update the system in a screen session and does not look every second for einfo messages or something - if anyone does an update of many packages, you cant be sure that everyone reads this. So break the process to make sure the user see the einfo or bump the dependency version, this is not very handy im my thoughts. Torsten Btw, which ebuild does point out this elog/ewarn info, i dont got gnome installed - so where to look for? This was noted in the GNOME 2.16 upgrade guide. http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/gnome/howtos/gnome-2.16-upgrade.xml Linked off of 27th November GWN. Hm ok. But this should be done in the applications ebuild, because i dont use gnome - so i did not look for any gnome upgrade guides. power-manager and rhytmbox can be used without the rest of the stuff which comes with the gnome ebuild, so imho its better to notify the user about this needed rebuild, if an ebuild uses the libnotify use flag. Torsten as remi pointed out you can find in man portage the as remi pointed out you can find in man portage the übercool new feature from portage ~2.1 which allows you to log 'elog, ewarn, ecritical' and other messages you really need to get. For more info on elog, read /etc/make.conf.example (I can't find the man) and check the output of eix -S elog (or emerge -S elog) |
