Not here, no. I have gstreamer but no gnome-base on this KDE box (not ~amd64). In fact, "eix -I gnome" returns only polkit-gnome. I see that's only there because I've inherited a gtk USE flag from the desktop profile. I've now set -gtk in make.conf and I'm reinstalling world (13 packages, including gcc and libre-office) to check that I really don't need gtk. Even gimp doesn't need gtk! -- Regards Peter
