ebuild freetype-2.0.1-r1.ebuild (first)
ebuild freetype-1.3.1-r2.ebuild (Daniel advised me to install the older
version to overcome a problem. I think it was with libgd-1.8.3-r1)

Definitely have not got librsvg. ebuild Nautilus-0.8.2.ebuild and later
ebuild nautilus-1.0.ebuild: both would have given message successfully
merged otherwise I log messages. Before nautilus-0.8.2 had previously
merged: sawfish, libunicode, gal, gtkhtml, libgtop, openssl, ammonite,
medusa, nautilus-0.8.2 hence no librsvg! Not sure which of these are
dependencies of nautilus.

Carried out steps above. In gnome terminal: .....activated successfully:
contacts, My Evolution, vtrash, mailstorge, mail, schema 'mailto', tasks,
calendar. Two message boxes "Could not create composer window" followed by
"Unable to retrieve message from editor". Does this make any sense Mikael?

I do have too many older versions of many applications and will unmerge some
in the weekend.

Many thanks
Kevin
