What's up with Chromium needing xfree over xorg? I'd like to emerge it but not sure who to get around this since I have xorg and don't want xfree.
Code:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[blocks B     ] x11-base/xorg-x11 (from pkg x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r6)
[ebuild  N    ] app-arch/cabextract-0.6
[ebuild  N    ] x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r6
[ebuild  N    ] media-libs/smpeg-0.4.4-r4
[ebuild  N    ] media-libs/openal-20040303
[ebuild  N    ] games-action/chromium-0.9.12-r5


Thanks

EDIT:
Changed subject... sorry about the lack of subject.

I thought that since xorg-x11 is B "blocks" that I would not emerge it. Plus it says that xfree is new and I'm not interested in having both xfree and xorg.

It's saying that x.org is blocking a new install of xfree.

Are you sure it's chromium has the xfree dependency? Try emerging smpeg and openal on their own to see if they are the real cause.

Interesting... mine doesn't want xfree at all. I'd suggest checking your /etc/make.profile/virtuals and seeing if that's where it's getting xfree from, except mine's got xfree in there still and hasn't caused any problems.

I was just trying this and when I did the emerge all it had was chromium, smpeg, and openal. Maybe it was a package problem? I haven't merged anything on that computer since I've tried that.

I know you probably thinking I wonder what that dumb arse was doing. I guess I should have pasted the emerge -p chromium statement with the dependencies list. I guess I could have been doing something wrong but not sure what it would have been.

Thanks for your help anyhow
Carl
