When I do emerge -u gconf (or any update that includes gconf as a dependancy), various errors occur during compile. During the ./configure stage, it complains it cannot find ORBit-2.0.pc, which turns out that the new pkgconfig file is ORBit-idl-2.0.pc, so I did a symlink. Then, configure finishes and make starts. During this stage, the GConfX.idl file has no execute permissions, preventing it from being run. So, before it gets to that stage it do a chmod +x and then I get the following errors: ./GConfX.idl ./GConfX.idl: line 2: //: is a directory ./GConfX.idl: line 3: //: is a directory ./GConfX.idl: line 4: //: is a directory ./GConfX.idl: line 6: enum: command not found ./GConfX.idl: line 8: enum: command not found ./GConfX.idl: line 10: struct: command not found ./GConfX.idl: line 11: ConfigValueType: command not found ./GConfX.idl: line 12: ConfigValueType: command not found ./GConfX.idl: line 13: ConfigValueType: command not found ./GConfX.idl: line 14: ConfigValueType: command not found ./GConfX.idl: line 15: string: command not found ./GConfX.idl: line 16: string: command not found ./GConfX.idl: line 17: string: command not found ./GConfX.idl: line 18: string: command not found ./GConfX.idl: line 19: //: is a directory ./GConfX.idl: line 20: string: command not found ./GConfX.idl: line 21: syntax error near unexpected token `}' ./GConfX.idl: line 21: `};' I really need this to compile, what am I doing wrong?

The version of gconf attempting to be installed is 2.8.0.1
Can you please: remove the symlink you created emerge =libxslt-1.1.9-r1 emerge gconf Thanks.
I have the same problem and following "remove the symlink you created emerge =libxslt-1.1.9-r1 emerge gconf" didn't work. It complained about not finding ORBit-2.0. checking for gmodule-2.0 >= 2.0.1 gobject-2.0 >= 2.0.1 ORBit-2.0 >= 2.4.0... Package ORBit-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `ORBit-2.0.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'ORBit-2.0' found configure: error: Library requirements (gmodule-2.0 >= 2.0.1 gobject-2.0 >= 2.0.1 ORBit-2.0 >= 2.4.0) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.

The following worked for me: # emerge -e gnome
Thomas: yeh, you most likely needed to remerge a missing orbit-2*. @reporter: reopen if this is still a problem.
Created attachment 54614 [details] gconf config.log
have same problem but on a fresh stage 1 install using either 2004.3 or 2005.0 livecd. Same issue with no ORBit-2.0.pc file. Have the ORBit-idl-2.0.pc file though. Tried the symlink with same results as other poster. Haven't installed gnome so haven't tried the emerge -e gnome. Installed the libxslt pkg but no help with that. Wiped system and reinstalled again stage 1 using 2005.0 live cd. All else working great but can't get past this gconf install. Reinstalled ORBit to no avail.
