Hey gang, |
2 |
|
3 |
As you know I had this problem with pan. See "debugging pan" thread. But |
4 |
let's forget about it for a second. |
5 |
|
6 |
I got a cool script for xchat and I wanted to run it. It turned out my xchat |
7 |
didn't have perl support compiled in (but I DO have USE perl flag set, and |
8 |
always have). Anyway... I figured it's time to upgrade my xchat from 1.8.2 |
9 |
to 1.8.4. First thing I did was 'emerge --clean rsync'. I unmerge the old |
10 |
xchat and merged the new one. |
11 |
|
12 |
Now, the new xchat gives me the SAME error as pan!!! ARRGGGGG!!!! :) Oh my, |
13 |
the number of working apps is decreasing. I was somewhat annoyed because I |
14 |
had a perfectly working xchat before. Darned perl support... |
15 |
|
16 |
Anyway, I figured, forget this.. I am merging the entire gnome-base/gnome. |
17 |
So I did, and it didn't install cleanly. I got these errors: |
18 |

19 |

So, I type emerge --verbose and I get this: |
35 |

36 |

37 |
|
38 |

40 |
* Processed 61 info files; 1 errors. |

43 |
I don't think i can do anything about this warning. So, I remerged xchat to |
44 |
see if it's any better with gnome merged...and NOPE..same thing. It just |
45 |
crashes instantly as soon as I start it. |
46 |
|
47 |
Something is not right. How can it be this difficult to get it to work? My |
48 |
setup is pretty recent and I didn't do anything weird with it. Also, I *did* |
49 |
follow the thread about moving Gnome apps and I did unmerge every single |
50 |
things that was mentioned in that thread prior to merging xchat, then gnome, |
51 |
then remerging xchat again. I also checked /etc/env.d and I didn't even have |
52 |
90gnome there. Instead I had 90kde. |
53 |
|
54 |
Does anyone have any clue, what's up? Any help would be appreciated. |
