Merged the preceding two posts.
Moved from Documentation, Tips & Tricks to Unsupported Software. Putting a, probably locked, sticky reference to this topic in Desktop Environments (even Documentation, Tips & Tricks) is an option, if so desired, but Documentation, Tips & Tricks is expressly not meant to be an active support forum. |

First of all, thank you to dantrell and whoever contributed to this patchset.
If I want to switch to a Plasma profile, thus completely removing GNOME, how do I do that? I just change the profile with eselect and then emerge @world? |

For that particular package, one host usually has the tarball before the other and they are tarball'd differently. For now, things should be fine but I will be testing and implementing a proper solution.

Glad to hear you got it working.
If you are saying nm-applet had a build failure, I need the full log starting from the emerge command.

If that will help users find the correct support thread, please do so.

The overlays do some of their work even if you don't use one of the bundled profiles so what you need to do is uninstall GNOME, remove all of the overlays (or dereference them), switch profiles, update @world and then deal with any dependencies:
| Code: | emerge --ask --unmerge gnome
layman --delete dantrell-gnome
layman --delete dantrell-gnome-3-<?>
eselect profile list
eselect profile set <target>
emerge --ask --update --deep --changed-use --with-bdeps=y @world
emerge --ask --depclean |
Thanks for point out the lack of uninstallation instructions, I'll be adding this to the documentation.
By the way, If you are switching because of how GNOME without systemd functions, please let know what you think can be improved.

I'm switching because of curiosity torwards Plasma (I'm a GNOME user since 2.20), GNOME without systemd works perfectly! |

First of all, thanks for so nice repo
Just recently updated to Gnome 3.20 and now having issue with:
gnome-extra/gnome-user-share-3.18.2::dantrell-gnome
Pulling in as a dependency on gnome-base/gnome-extra-apps-3.20.0 [share]
Fails on configuration stage:
checking for gmsgfmt... (cached) /usr/bin/gmsgfmt
checking for xgettext... (cached) /usr/bin/xgettext
configure: error: systemd development headers not found
Temporary fixing issue with -share on gnome-extra-apps. Any suggestions? |

There was a recent change in certain GNOME packages to allow them to be started via user systemd which requires systemd. However, since those packages don't actually depend on systemd, the configure check should be optional but as you found, in some cases it isn't. I have corrected this on my end so sync up and you should be good to go.
Enjoy.

I've been procrastinating this issue for the past while. But now I'm back. I've tried adding the required use flags but this error still shows up. Any ideas? Thanks.

media-libs/libmediaart need or gtk or qt4 or qt5 use flag but not together. If you use gnome:
| Code: | | # echo "media-libs/libmediaart -qt5 -qt4" >> /etc/portage/package.use |

Since you made it to this point, I guess you fixed the other issue. Out of curiosity, what went wrong?

What fedeliallalinea said is correct, for this package you need to pick one UI framework:
| fedeliallalinea wrote: | media-libs/libmediaart need or gtk or qt4 or qt5 use flag but not together. If you use gnome:
| Code: | | # echo "media-libs/libmediaart -qt5 -qt4" >> /etc/portage/package.use |
|
I will be alleviating this somewhat on my end since this particular issue only impacts 4 packages but it will only take effect for "soft" blocks. What you have a "hard" block since you the qt5 USE flag enabled (probably globally) somewhere in /etc/portage/ and that overrides the settings the overlay profiles provide.
Keep in mind that the project overlays have not been tested for compatibility with other Desktop Environments (such as KDE in your case) so you might encounter more issues like this. It'll work but not without some fiddling. Since that is use-case specific I leave it as an exercise to the reader.

Hey again, I got rid of the issue with qt5 AND qt4 but now I'm the situation where another problem has arrived.

Sorry if the invalid atom was misleading. I am in fact trying to install GNOME as my desktop environment.
Thanks |

This is the same type of issue:
| Code: | | at-most-one-of ( pulseaudio gstreamer ) |
as before:
| Code: | | at-most-one-of ( gtk qt4 qt5 ) |
Please read the emerge messages. It can be confusing at times but it usually tells you exactly what's wrong.

I can see that, however, your problems are happening because of what I previously told you. If you selected one of the bundles profiles, whatever USE flags you have set in /etc/portage/ is overriding it. So far, you have qt5 and gstreamer set which are not the default USE flags and in particular conflicts with the overlay settings.
Only the default USE flags (i.e. what comes with the stage3 tarballs) are guaranteed to provide clean emerge output. If you diverge from them then resolving it is up to you because it is too use-case specific.

First of all thank you very much for letting us use gnome without systemd shit(since selecting the profile 4 gnome always ends up getting that shit), I followed the thread to install option 1 (Installation under layman) could not. but with option 2 (Direct Installation). On the other hand I wanted to see if you are adding fresh out repositories for version 3.22.
Sorry for my English and thanks ...

I'm assuming you followed Sakaki's guide on the Wiki? If so, can you compare Option 1: Installation under layman with its counterpart in the official documentation and let me know if anything stands out to you?
Anything you remember about what went wrong with the Layman installation option is helpful.
| At4ri wrote: | | On the other hand I wanted to see if you are adding fresh out repositories for version 3.22. |
I have put some time into this already and I'm almost done. It should be available within 12 hours (but let's just say a week ) at which point it'll be noted on the project overview and in the TL;DR on the first post of this thread.

thanks, whait the update. The wiki is https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GNOME/GNOME_Without_systemd where I could not install under Option 1, if I could do it in Option 2.

I figured that was what happened. Thanks for letting me know.
That said, I have GNOME 3.22.0 working but I'm going to test it a little longer.

GNOME 3.22.0 is now available for testing. Just a few things:
- GNOME Session cannot run inside Xephyr without extra work
- GNOME Control Center > User Accounts will Segmentation Fault
- GNOME Files (Nautilus) currently has no Quality of Life improvements
Everything else works but I consider 3.22.0 to be "alpha".
Enjoy.

If it's on the overview or in the TL;DR then it's available.
If you used the official documentation, then testing is as easy as:
| Code: | layman --sync-all
layman --add dantrell-gnome-3-22
eselect profile set dantrell-gnome:default/amd64/3.22
emerge --ask --update --deep --changed-use --with-bdeps=y @world |
That said, the Quality of Life improvements for GNOME Files (Nautilus) has been completed.
