I have noticed this issue when reading at-spi2-core ebuild: src_configure() { # xevie is deprecated/broken since xorg-1.6/1.7 gnome2_src_configure \ --disable-xevie \ $(use_enable introspection) } Which is inconsistent with gdm ebuilds (the only consumer apart of gok, that is obsolete too => its dep from gdm should be dropped also) This references look to also suggest we shouldn't use it: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree-announce/2009-06/msg00003.html http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/XEvIE/ http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2008-April/034760.html I would then drop the requirements for Gnome 3.8 and, once it's stabilized, we should be able to treeclean this (the only consumers are gok and gdm). What is the X11 team opinion?
Regardind that gnome stuff, don't worry, we will handle it ;)
Sounds good to me.
But I am testing kde overlay, and I discovered that, in fact, libkscreen-9999 is requiring -lxcb-xevie and -lxcb-xprint which were removed at least in libxcb-1.11 I suggest removing it (that is, applying the patch to remove them) via use flags or something. Otherwise this component of kf5 could not even compile.

Ouch, my fault, this belongs to libxcb which is another package instead of here. Sorry
Masked for removal.
