Description Keith Constable 2003-08-08 01:03:50 UTC

Each ebuild for net-irc/xchat version 2.0.x has 'gtk?' as one of its RDEPENDs. 
This is an inconsistency.  xchat optionally depends on >=x11-libs/gtk+-2.0.3. 
x11-libs/gtk+-2.0.3 falls under the USE flag 'gtk2,' not 'gtk.'

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Actual Results:  
In the case of xchat, USE="-gtk" causes a terminal-based X-less interface to be
built.  This is incorrect since xchat uses gtk2 and not gtk.

Expected Results:  
Users, including myself, often have USE="-gtk gtk2" to build a gtk2 interface if
it is available.  xchat has one such interface available.

Corrected ebuild.

It works for me like this.  Basically changed each 'gtk' to 'gtk2.'  I added
'-r1' to the version string.  You'll have to add the GNU and CVS version
headers again, I removed them.

this is not correct, read the description of the relevant USE flags carefully. gtk2 USE is only used when there is a choice between gtk1 and gtk2 .
