Alright so I finally decided to start playing around with some epplets.
I went ahead and emerged epplets, so now I have all the built in base ones.
Great but not enough.

Tried downloading some tarballs off of sourceforge and no matter which one I try when I run the make file I keep getting:

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [E-DigiTime] Error 1

or what ever package I am trying.

Could this be a dependancy issue or a library that is not listed in my $path

any help would be appreciated

i've got a few problems with this too.

I dont know if it's the same problem you're experiencing since there aren't too many details in your post.

For me it seems to be a problem with the libepplet.so file.
Whenever something tries to compile linked to this library i get:
Code:
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2/../../../libepplet.so: undefined reference to `glXMakeCurrent'
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2/../../../libepplet.so: undefined reference to `glXChooseVisual'
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2/../../../libepplet.so: undefined reference to `glXDestroyContext'
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2/../../../libepplet.so: undefined reference to `glXCreateContext'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I even tried just creating an "empty" c file and linking that:
Code:
int main() {
return 0;
}

like this:
Code:
gcc -lepplet test.c

and that still produces these errors. It appears to be a problem with the libepplet.so file, however i have no idea how to fix it :)

Does anyone have any good ideas?

yeah that is exactly the same problem I am having.

I tried doing a locate on libepplet.so it is in the /usr/lib dir, so I tried adding the path to my path variable......

still no good.......

It would be nice if someone new what the hell is going on...

afaik (and i'm no expert) it's because libepplet.so refernces functions from some other library that it suddenly cant find. I'm not sure how to fix it though :)
i've tried your default unmerge and reemerge epplets, this doesn't seem to fix it :) It might go a bit deeper than just the epplet lib itself :)
