trying emerge -u world on both 1.2 and 1.4-rc? machines gtk+2.0.9 errors out on both machines at same spot with the same error checking Pango flags... -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -Wl,--export-dynamic -lpangoxft-1.0 -lpangox-1.0 -lpango-1.0 -lgobject-2.0 -lgmodule-2.0 -ldl -lglib-2.0 checking for pango_context_new in -lpango-1.0... no configure: error: *** Can't link to Pango.

Same thing happened here... machine is all stable - no ~x86.. help? I now have a partially updated gnome environment...
Ok it's going now and I lied about being all stable :) I had mozilla 1.2.1-r1 installed and it seems that is where the conflict was. When moz 1.2.1-r4 went stable, I didnt upgrade it on this particular machine. I won't complain emerge should have 'suggested' I upgraded from the old unstable version :) My bad. Anyhow, there's a very helpful post in forums on this: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=27318 (last post) 1) emerge unmerge mozilla 2) emerge -C pango freetype 3) emerge gtk+ This resolved it. Thanks
Yes a rare problem. I think the the mozilla specific libs are tried before the system wide libs. This should be fixed in the latest revision, altough im not completely sure how it ties in here. Thanks for figuring it out ;)
