Ok, you all can stop ranting about ebuilds etc. being broken. :) I found the culprit, it seems something wrong in the kdelibs building. Basically, when kdelibs builds dcopidl, it happily *says* "oh, this would need libXft, that in turn has a broken link to libexpat.so.0. But who cares, let's go along with it!" instead of stopping and telling me that libXft is broken.
I have no more the relevant compilation output snippet, but that's the meaning. So, I just emerged libXft, fixing the expat link, and everything went pretty smooth. Now I have the problem that Thunderbird starts, but no window comes out, but it's a different stuff... m. -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
