1 Hi, all!
2
3 I'm a newbie on using Mac OS X and gentoo prefix. Hence, I have many problems arised in using them to resolve. One of them is how to compile firefox by gentoo prefix, although I know that there is a package named firefox for mac on mozilla's project page.
4
5 Ok, let's see what happened?

7 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

9 $ emerge -av firefox
10
11 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
12
13 Calculating dependencies... done!
14
15 The following USE changes are necessary to proceed:
16 #required by www-client/firefox-14.0.1, required by firefox (argument)
17 =x11-libs/cairo-1.12.2-r3 X
18 #required by www-client/firefox-14.0.1, required by firefox (argument)
19 > =x11-libs/pango-1.30.1 X
20 #required by www-client/firefox-14.0.1, required by firefox (argument)
21 > =media-libs/libpng-1.5.12 apng
22
23 Use --autounmask-write to write changes to config files (honoring CONFIG_PROTECT).
24
25 emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy ">=sys-apps/dbus-1.6.2".
26 (dependency required by "dev-libs/dbus-glib-0.100" [ebuild])
27 (dependency required by "www-client/firefox-14.0.1[dbus]" [ebuild])
28 (dependency required by "firefox" [argument])
29
30 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
31
32 The first question, I face to, is whether USE flag X should be select, because X11 for mac have been separated from Mac OS X since Mountain Lion. In fact, I have replaced USE Flag X by aqua in $EPREFIX/etc/make.conf.
33
34 Obviously, without proper ebuild on dbus is another question. Same problem also raised on installing the package, app-text/xdvipdfmx, when USE flag xetex is chosen for app-text/texlive. Maybe, the procedure on ebuild transition from gentoo-portage to gentoo-portage-prefix should be mentioned.
35
36 Anyone could help me?
