Description Dirk Gerrits 2004-08-08 10:08:49 UTC 
Whatever package provides XML::Parser, it doesn't seem to be a dependency of the gdm-2.6.0.3 ebuild, because I don't have it:

# emerge gdm

you might want to search next time, there's dozens of parser bugs.

Sorry, but this was the only package where I got the missing XML::Parser.  I thought someone just forgot to add it as a dependency.  I searched GDM bugs but didn't find this problem.
