Hi,

I run into this compilation error when trying to emerge beagle:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 12) dev-dotnet/gtk-sharp-2.3.92 to /


cp ../gtk-sharp.snk .
cp ../AssemblyInfo.cs .

Has anyone experienced similar errors? I am not sure about what information
to include, so please tell me what I need to post.

I've experienced many errors in attempting to compile Beagle (before I
eventually succeeded), but not this one.

What I do know is that 1) beagle needs very specific compile order and
dependency versions to compile successfully, and 2) pango-sharp does not
exist in the Portage tree, or the gentopia overlay (so why you're
getting a pango error I don't know, but it seems a trifle odd).

The best sources of information for how to compile Beagle are

http://www.beagle-project.org/Gentoo_Installation

and

http://www.gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Beagle

Using these instructions, I was able to build Beagle successfully. The
only inaccuracy in the Wiki is that Beagle needs wv-1.0.3-r1
specifically; it will not compile against a lower version, or the
current 1.2.2 version (there's a bug on b.g.o to that effect, and I just
spent two days confirming it before I found it). So as long as you mask
">wv-1.0.3-r1", you should be good to go.

But other than that, if you follow the instructions, it should work. It
was a real pain to get installed, though; I will say that. However, it
is pretty cool.

HTH for a start,
Holly
