epiphany fails when emerging gnome

thoughts

I'm trying to do emerge gnome (to go from 2.4 to 2.6), and it got through about 60 of the 70 packages, and is now failing on epiphany:

[ebuild U ] net-www/epiphany-1.2.2 [1.0.7] -doc +gnome 0 kB

From searching the forums here, I see that the problem could be a mozilla dependency issue, and you might need your moz built with gtk2 instead of gtk? I'm using moz 1.7, and I'm not sure how to check whether it's using gtk2, but emerge does say it'd be an "R" (replacement) if I emerge it again:

[ebuild R ] net-www/mozilla-1.7 +crypt -debug -debug +gnome +gtk2 -ipv6 +java +ldap -mozcalendar -moznocompose -moznoirc -moznomail -moznoxft -mozsvg +ssl -xinerama -xprint 0 kB

So I'm thinking since it says +gtk2 and "R" that means that my current moz must also be gtk2.

Anyway, maybe it's not even a moz problem, but I saw that so I thought I'd mention it. The actual epiphany errors are below.

Thanks,

I got the same exact ERROR.

Does this same error happen with epiphany-1.2.6?

Ok guys, I just got a work around of this problem. It seems that it has to do something with the epiphany and mozilla as you pointed out.

So I just emerge the newest ebuild of Epiphany, then emerge Gnome respectively. No Errors!

I'm compiling as of right now. So I'll let you know of the result...hope there won't be any errors.

Good call, I just tried with 1.2.6 (ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86") and it compiled OK.

Ok, I'm just confirming that Gnome is now working as expected.

Had the same problem. Emerging the later version of epiphany worked. Just hope the rest of the gnome install will go with out a hitch... Forums really suck when you're looking at them in links2. :lol:

Having same problem, what is syntax to emerge the new epiphany?

I was hoping it would come to me in an epiphany, but it hasn't yet
