My situation seems to be a little more difficult and I would appreciate some advice/help. I, like others, hit the expat problem and as directed did revdep-rebuild -X --library libexpat.so.0 gettext failed to compile since emacs could not be run (libexpat problem). This I fixed by emerging gettext with USE='-emacs'. But now USE='-emacs' revdep-rebuild -X --library libexpat.so.0 fails. It attempts to emerge x11-libs/gtk+-2.10.13 but that needs pango checking Pango flags... -DPNG_NO_MMX_CODE -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/cairo -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/libpng12 -lpangocairo-1.0 -lpango-1.0 -lcairo -lgobject-2.0 -lgmodule-2.0 -ldl -lglib-2.0 configure: error: *** Can't link to Pango.
