When I emerge gimp (2.2.6-r1), the build fails at the configure step. It seems the XML::Parser perl module can't be found. I have tried emerging libxml-perl which seems to contain the module, even though libxml-perl isn't listed as a dependancy, but this didn't solve the problem. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge gimp 2. 3. Actual Results: checking return type of signal handlers... void checking for vprintf... yes checking for _doprnt... no checking for working alloca.h... yes checking for alloca... yes checking for difftime... yes checking for putenv... yes checking for mmap... yes checking for perl... /usr/bin/perl checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool !!! Please attach the config.log to your bug report: !!! /var/tmp/portage/gimp-2.2.6-r1/work/gimp-2.2.6/config.log !!! ERROR: media-gfx/gimp-2.2.6-r1 failed. !!!
