Created attachment 363058 [details, diff] patch for the ebuild to allow building with USE=-socialweb (In reply to timemars from comment #0) > Created attachment 363042 [details] > build.log > > seems that net-libs/libsocialweb is needed. I've observed the same build failure building with USE=-socialweb The reason for the break is that the gnome-control-center-3.8.6-flickr-linking.patch (from upstream) is including unconditional the bg-flickr.{c,h} files which in turn insist on the presence of the libsocialweb headers. I am pretty sure that the upstream patch is at best suboptimal and has to be overhauled for the 3.10.x series. However for us now on the 3.8-branch it would be helpful to patch the ebuild like I've done on my local machine
Created attachment 363180 [details, diff] corrected gnome-control-center-3.8.6-flickr-linking.patch as checekd-in by upstream (In reply to Walter Meinl from comment #3) > The reason for the break is that the > gnome-control-center-3.8.6-flickr-linking.patch (from upstream) > is including unconditional the bg-flickr.{c,h} files which in turn insist on > the presence of the libsocialweb headers. > I am pretty sure that the upstream patch is at best suboptimal and has to be > overhauled for the 3.10.x series. It was discovered in the gnome upstream bug https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=710829 that the patch for gnome-control-center-3.10.1 was wrong and the right patch was attached. However, to work correctly with 3.8.6 another check-in from upstream (see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=709302) has to be applied as well. The patch attached combines both patches and I was able to build gnome-control-center-3.8.6 with and w/o USE=socialweb
