i had libgtkhtml-3.2.3 & yelp-2.6.4 installed, the 2nd for Xscreensaver, & was told by 'revdep-rebuild' to re-emerge 'yelp'. when i tried to do this, it gave libgtkhtml-2.6.0 as a dependency & indeed when i tried 'emerge --nodeps yelp' it refused to compile. after 'emerge yelp' & installing libgtkhtml-2.6.0 besides -3.2.3 , i tried 'qpkg' to see what it had to say about dependencies & got :
gnome-extra/libgtkhtml-2.6.0 * DEPENDED ON BY: libgtkhtml-3.2.3 yelp-2.6.4 gnome-extra/libgtkhtml-3.2.3 * DEPENDED ON BY: libgtkhtml-3.2.3 yelp-2.6.4 how can Libgtkhtml depend on itself ?? why does Yelp need both slotted versions ?? does anyone have any light to throw ... (smile) ? BTW i don't use Gnome, but install whatever bits other packages need. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
