Description Aelia 2009-03-25 14:53:03 UTC
as said in Xorg mailinglist : http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.freedesktop.xorg/37826/focus=37870

libxcb uses xml python module at compile-time to generate files. So we need to check it in ebuild before compiling or it fails without an error.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. USE="-python" emerge -uN python
2. emerge libxcb

Actual Results:  
compile error

Expected Results:  
portage should say we need python with USE xml beforehand.
