Description Jacques-Pascal Deplaix 2011-06-30 17:27:33 UTC
Some precisions:
May be can you add an USE flag for --with-gtk=2.0|3.0 option.
And an other for python USE flag already registered in vte-0.28.1-r200.ebuild.

I think that should be better for the next version.

Reproducible: Always

No. With a USE=gtk3 use-flag, you can't install only the gtk3 library — you'll always end up installing the gtk2 library as well. 

Both slots are parallel installable, and there is no need for a 'python' use-flag with the gtk3 version since you're supposed to use it through gobject-introspection.

There's nothing to do here.
Comment 2 Jacques-Pascal Deplaix 2011-07-03 10:01:54 UTC
I had didn't think about that...
Sorry.

In all cases, the version for gtk2 no longer exists in the next version.
