So then I went to see if there was a possibility that you might have disabled HTML-Parser via USE flags: emerge -pv bbgallery These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done!

Were there any errors in the emerge log? It can certainly happen that a program could emerge successfully without building all of its parts. Not often, but it can happen. Are there any bugs listed in b.g.o wrt this app? Is dev-perl/HTML-Template installed? Are you possibly having other issues with Perl (recent upgrade of), and need to run perl-cleaner? That's all I can think of, until someone who meets your criterion (experience with the specific tool) comes along :) . HTH, Holly -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
