Are you actually using this? If so, what does "ldd `which gtkdiff`" report? It might be a mistake and might actually depend on gtk2. But given it's age, I sort of doubt this. If it does depend on gtk1, well, there are several other graphical diff utilities in portage. "emerge --searchdesc" or "eix -S" are your friends here. > gnome-base/gnome-vfs-1.0.5-r4 > gnome-base/gnome-print-0.37 > gnome-base/libglade-0.17-r6 > media-libs/gdk-pixbuf-0.22.0-r5 Old gnome stuff...do you actually use these, and if so, why haven't you upgraded to the current version of gnome? > app-misc/gfontview-0.5.0-r6 Just recompile this without the gnome USE flag.

Anyway, gtk2-perl and gtk2-gladexml exist for gtk2 applications. > dev-db/unixODBC-2.2.11-r1 This can just be remerged as well: 17 Nov 2006; Saleem Abdulrasool unixODBC-2.2.6.ebuild, unixODBC-2.2.6-r1.ebuild, unixODBC-2.2.8.ebuild, unixODBC-2.2.11.ebuild, unixODBC-2.2.11-r1.ebuild: Dropping gnome useflag for gnome-1.x removal Same response as gtkdiff. Do you actually use them? If not, why do you care? -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
