But re-merge emacs first. Emacs is the one that's broken.

This is happening because the newest versions of X.org have moved a bunch of files around. Partly for FHS compliance, and partly other reasons. It looks like a path was hard-coded into the package. Try re-merging gpm while the new X.org is installed. That should fix it. hth, Cooper. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Don't believe it's a bug, but then I'm not running emacs so I don't have that use flag set. You could try an env-update, which would rebuild the ld cache and might resolve it. > c.

You can do an "emerge -C gpm" to remove it, and no it is not necessary. Although I do a lot of stuff from the console and find gpm to be very handy, it's totally up to you to keep it or dump it. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
