Yeah, sorry, I only included that "equery belongs" bit last time to show |
| 47 |
that it was installed on my system, and that the libxfce4util package |
| 48 |
installed it. I didn't mean to say you should look for it there; it's |
| 49 |
not going to find it, as has been pointed out before. My only point was |
| 50 |
that emerging libxfce4util *should* have installed that file; since it |
| 51 |
didn't, I would assume you need to look at that emerge process to find |
| 52 |
out why; either it's not building it for some reason, or not installing |
| 53 |
it after it's been built. |
