Description زياد بن عبدالعزيز الباتلي 2019-09-04 07:24:30 UTC

When emerging "=www-client/firefox-69.0::gentoo" while clearing/disabling the "dbus" USE flag (i.e. "-dbus"):

----8<----

And a lot more messages like above all relating to dbus.

This is fixed in firefox 80, ref. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1561207

Can confirm that reverting the above commit on the recently commited firefox-80.0.ebuild enables firefox to once again compile without dbus enabled.
