My USE flags: -gtk +gtk2 +nls +ssl, re-emerging gftp did not help. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge =net-ftp/gftp-2.0.18-r1 2. execute gftp Actual Results: I only get a text-based interface. Expected Results: I should get a graphical, gtk based interface
yes. Thats exactly correct. You state you do not want gtk+ support built in. So therefore it doesn't build the gtk+ GUI to gftp, only the curses one. enable +gtk to get a gui. -gtk means that in all cases where gtk is optional, it is removed.
