Hi,

having dev-libs/glib-2.6.2-r1 installed while compiling gnome-extra/gnome-games-2.10.1 results in an compile error (output follows). Upgrading to dev-libs/glib-2.6.4 and gnome-games compiles just fine. (glib is the package where the 'not found function' g_mkdir is declared)

I suggest to update the DEPEND of gnome-games-2.10.1 to include >=glib-2.6.4.

Best regards,

Markus

Closing as INVALID. g_mkdir was introduced in 2.6.x series of glib and this error should never have happened.
