It seems that postgis-2.0.0 depends on gdal. The ebuild should respect the gdal use flag if it is optional, or have a dependency on gdal.

!!! Please attach the following file when seeking support: !!! /var/tmp/portage/dev-db/postgis-2.0.0/work/postgis-2.0.0/config.log 1) Please attach that. 2) Post your `emerge --info' output in a comment. But BEFORE THAT, run revdep-rebuild and see if that fixes sci-libs/gdal.
reemerging gdal fixes that issue. excuse that noise :-} ervin
