checking for GTKHTML_LIBS... configure: error: Package requirements (libgtkhtml-3.8) were not met. Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. the ebuild only asks for >=gnome-extra/libgtkhtml-3.7 which should be changed to 3.8
libgtkhtml-3.8 is going to be added soon, however, the real dependency is for libgtkhtml-3.7, which provides libgtkhtml-3.8.pc. This is probably a local problem on your machine. Please check that you have >=libgtkhtml-3.7 correctly installed, and paste the complete output from emerge, as well as the output from "emerge --info".
I actually didn't even try to install it I just ran ./configure to see if all dependencies are met. So this is ebuild bug but just a suggestion to make the dependency 3.8 because many people already have a libgtkhtml mess on their computers: emerge unmerge libgtkhtml -pv >>> These are the packages that I would unmerge: gnome-extra/libgtkhtml selected: 2.6.3 3.0.10-r1 3.2.5 3.6.2 protected: none omitted: none
I see. Thanks for your desire to help, but please avoid opening bug reports if you're not sure there is actually a problem. Regarding libgtkhtml versions, those you have installed are not a "mess". They are installed using different SLOTs and that mechanism is used for a good reason.
