[Description Tiger 2007-03-07 10:59:09 UTC]

First time I emerge kicad, I had this error :

!!! You need to emerge wxGTK with unicode in your USE

In ebuild there is : DEPEND=">=x11-libs/wxGTK-2.6

After emerge wxGTK-2.4.2-r4, compilation failed again.

Reproducible: Always

<snip>
WX_GTK_VER=$(`ls /usr/bin/wx-config* | sort | tail -n 1` --release)
</snip>

Eh??? Plus you already depend on wxGTK-2.6*. Let me quote the eclass: 

<snip>
If you want to use wxGTK-2.6* export WX_GTK_VER in your ebuild:
</snip>

I'm sorry for this bug report, I had wxGTK-2.8.0 installed on my system.

The ebuild is broken regardless, see the patch (yeah the dependency needs to be fixed as well, it should force 2.6* and nothing else).

Do not feel sorry for reporting a bug. It could have been a real issue. It's our job to sort it out.

The way the Kicad ebuild is written makes that it should work with wxGTK-2.8.0 when the latter reaches Portage. The reason it failed is because you either installed wxGTK-2.8.0 manually, or you used a faulty ebuild.
