Gnome 2.10

For those blockages... you need unmerge your current version of the package as the old versions of some packages aren't compatible with new versions of the dependencies that its decendents rely upon. Its quite odd but just unmerge the the packages that block their own dependencies and you should be fine.

I meant bug-buddy

i just quickpkg'd all the blocked packages for backup and then unmerged them. then i went right ahead with my merge and everything has been dandy so far, except one thing. For some reason, vte is failing to compile. I'm compiling other things before vte and waiting for someone to fix it. right now i only have 22/70 packages left...

wish me luck. i'll post the vte error when i come across it again.

i noticed that the vte-0.11.12 ebuild applies a 0.11.11 patch to it, but when I commented that patch, it didn't make a difference. =/

i'm still skipping it and emerging everything that doesn't depend on it.

edit: looks like bug-buddy is failing too. i'm skipping it for now and i'll look at it later.

I'm going to try emerging this tonight. Good job Gentoo Gnome Team!

Update: Does the new totem include the mozilla plugin or is that still being worked on? I need an excuse to ditch mplayer.

If any of the Gentoo GNOME devs are reading, can they comment on allowing gentoo users to compile Epiphany against Firefox instead of Mozilla? And also on the inclusion of epiphany-extension in portage? There are some epiphany extension plug-ins that are broken if Epiphany isn't compiled against Firefox.

I would really love to see a libGecko package. That way thunderbird, moz, firefox, gecko-sharp, epiphany, etc. can all compile against that one set.

here goes my gnome-2.10_pre1.ebuild

I compared the packages' version numbers with the offical packages on ftp.gnome.org. so some of them needed a version bumb.

well i guess i've been more fortunate then some, after syncing, then unmasking the ebuilds everything compiled fine for me..

however my (seemingly minor) initial complaint is that the terminal window doesnt load my environment properly, it just drops me to a default looking bash prompt.. running source /etc/profile fixes it, but im assuming this isnt desired behavior, so i thought I'd mention it..

other then that things look good, I like the mild improvements..

I'm on the last few packages. Emerging pygtk-2.4.1 fixed vte like geekforhire suggested. Unfortunately, I'm heading off to school now, so I won't be able to see the results of my hard cpu hours until much later today. I'll post anything else I notice. Thanks for the help, everyone.

For my dep error, I had to --nodeps install one of them, then install the other and it just upgraded fine. Now I'm getting the BugBuddy error so I'll just re-sync again as joem(?) said and i should be fine.
