* [gentoo-user] Heads up: gtk-doc-1.18 build failure...

Hi,

If anyone encounters issues with building gtk-doc-1.18 (needed for gimp
"doc" USE flag, amongst others) you need to have the "python" flag
enabled for the libxml2 package in order to build gtk-doc (the gtk-doc
fails to build due to not finding libxml2 module [which I assume is a
python one]). I guess this is related to the "python" USE flag removal
in the profiles...

Best regards

Peter K

File a bug report; it sounds like gtk-doc's ebuild isn't declaring a
dependency on libxml2 having the 'python' USE flag. emerge should have
told you, "hey, the following USE flag changes are needed..."

You should probably file a bug and post the build failure, your emerge
--info, emerge -pv gtk-doc, etc.

I tried to reproduce it here but couldn't. If gtk-doc does need libxml2
compiled with python support under some circumstances, it could be added
as a use-flag dependency.
