Description guillaume Schmid 2002-06-18 04:27:10 UTC
the ebuild for xemacs look at the use variable 'x' to add the dependency to
openmotif.
I think that it should look a the 'motif' variable.
with USE "-motif" xemacs should build with it's own widget set and you dont need
motif (xemacs is heavy enough like this!).

I changed the line 
        X? ( virtual/x11 >=x11-libs/openmotif-2.1.30 )
to
        motif? ( virtual/x11 >=x11-libs/openmotif-2.1.30 )

And it worked for me.
Maybe the X variable should add a dependency to x11.

Howdy, if you ldd /usr/bin/xemacs, do you see the openmotif stuff linked in even
though motif is not in USE?
