6 This isn't realistic, you can't ask the devs to check every commit
7 upstream makes, exactly when it makes it, so they could update the
8 ebuild, if a 9999 ebuild isn't working try to fix it, Obviously
9 somthing changed with the dependecies, maybe versions, considering
10 gnome 3.18 is around the corner. Why do you think none of the 9999
11 ebuilds are keyworded? because they're not officially maintained for
12 any arch. My advice is wait if you don't want to mess with the
13 ebuilds, other wise, open up an editor and start making things work
14 for you, a good start would be to check all the autotools files for
15 changes in dependencies.
