Description Chris Mayo 2013-03-31 18:41:00 UTC

With dev-lang/vala-0.20.0 installed but no dev-lang/vala-0.18.1:

checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
configure: error: vapigen-0.18 >= 0.16 not found

!!! Please attach the following file when seeking support:
!!! /var/tmp/portage/gnome-extra/gucharmap-3.8.0/work/gucharmap-3.8.0/config.log
 * ERROR: gnome-extra/gucharmap-3.8.0 failed (configure phase):

I worked around this with:

Should have also said that with gobject-introspection-1.36.0 it fails even with dev-lang/vala-0.18.1 because of instance-parameter, bug 463720.
