I've noticed that when pgo is in USE, Thunderbird will try to launch Xvfb, then itself, and then try to load libotr.so, but to no avail. I've repeated the process, but it doesn't seem to be improving things. In both cases: 1. We don't have net-libs/libotr 2. We have net-libs/libotr Thunderbird still takes ages to do its pgo thing, and leaves no log messages to let us know how's progress. Is this supposed to take this long? Is libotr really needed? I don't know, because I didn't wait long enough to find out out of fear that the process may have entered an infinite loop, or hanged, due to lack of libotr. There's no output to say it didn't. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. USE=pgo emerge -1v =mail-client/thunderbird-115.2.3 2. Wait to the pgo stage 3.

Neither scenario seems to help unhanging pgo stage. This bug report is more like an open question - should this depend on libotr at the ebuild's BDEPEND level, or not?
It's been going for 27 hours now. I'm pretty sure the pgo stage is bugged.
I don't think Thunderbird upstream even wants to implement the pgo. It's been broken since 68. The reason why the mask is "visible" but not "available" in Gentoo is that the ebuild is 99 % identical to Firefox. It's easier to use profiles and mask the broken functionality instead of always stripping the pgo-related bits off when doing version bumps.
