When I try to emerge gpm, the ebuild fails as so: make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/gpm-1.20.1/work/gpm-1.20.1/contrib' /usr/bin/emacs -batch -l /var/tmp/portage/gpm-1.20.1/work/gpm-1.20.1/contrib/emacs/exec.el -exec '(byte-compile-file "emacs/t-mouse.el")' Loading /usr/lib/emacs/21.3/i686-pc-linux-gnu/fns-21.3.1.el (source)... Loading dictionary-init (source)... Emacs version "21.3.1" doesn't support in-line images. Upgrade to Emacs 21.1 or newer make[1]: *** [emacs/t-mouse.elc] Error 255 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gpm-1.20.1/work/gpm-1.20.1/contrib' make: *** [do-all] Error 1
!!! ERROR: sys-libs/gpm-1.20.1 failed. !!! Function src_compile, Line 55, Exitcode 2 !!! (no error message) The problem seems to be that emacs, when started without a window, produces this error message. Yet I have several gentoo installations, and this only happens on one box. I don't see this in bugzilla and I'm wondering, before I post a bug, whether anyone else has come across this. Jacob Smullyan
