libxml is part of the compile-time dependencies, since DEPEND includes $RDEPEND. Chances are that 'emerge --depclean' removed libxml from you system when it shouldn't have done it (you should read and understand the warning you get when running depclean). Also, for future bug reports, please note that you really should include your 'emerge info' and attach a copy of the build log if necessary. Thanks. Created attachment 58819 [details]
log of revdep-rebuild
I think I have come to an understanding of the problem. When doing a normal
emerge of libglade, the libxml prerequisite would be emerged. I was doing a
revdep-rebuild, which passes a --nodeps to the emerge command. This prevented
the building of the required libxml.
Can someone involved with revdep-rebuild comment on what problems would be
caused if revdep-rebuild did NOT pass --nodeps to its child ebuild.
Please open a new bug report against revdep-rebuild then, as the current report is assigned to the gnome team, and any revdep-rebuild maintainers probably won't read it. Thanks. Preparing to resolve as duplicate.. |
