Whatever package provides XML::Parser, it doesn't seem to be a dependency of the gdm-2.6.0.3 ebuild, because I don't have it: # emerge gdm Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) gnome-base/gdm-2.6.0.3 to / >>> md5 src_uri ;-) gdm-2.6.0.3.tar.bz2 >>> md5 src_uri ;-) gentoo-gdm-theme.tar.bz2 >>> md5 src_uri ;-) gentoo-gdm-theme-r1.tar.bz2 >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking gdm-2.6.0.3.tar.bz2 to /var/tmp/portage/gdm-2.6.0.3/work >>> Unpacking gentoo-gdm-theme.tar.bz2 to /var/tmp/portage/gdm-2.6.0.3/work >>> Unpacking gentoo-gdm-theme-r1.tar.bz2 to /var/tmp/portage/gdm-2.6.0.3/work * Applying gdm-2.4.4-selinux_remove_attr.patch...

you might want to search next time, there's dozens of parser bugs. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 59055 ***
Sorry, but this was the only package where I got the missing XML::Parser. I thought someone just forgot to add it as a dependency. I searched GDM bugs but didn't find this problem.
