Hello,
I have just upgraded Xfce4 to 4.8 version but then most of xfce apps stopped working. Revdep-rebuild showed that mainly two libs are missing:
libxfce4panel.so.1
libexo-0.3.so.1

But rebulding apps from xfce-extra package is not possible as they are removed from portage tree. How can I fix it?

Did you try emerging the unstable version of exo beforehand?


I'm not sure if it's the wisest idea, but in my package.keywords file, I have xfce-base and xfce-extra listed as below since I just use the latest anything that is xfce related. Some of the older applets and stuff don't work with Xfce4.8

Code:
xfce-base/* ~x86
xfce-extra/* ~x86


emerge -DNu world after that +revdep-rebuild after that I think will take care of your issue.

I didn't emerge unstable exo. It was updated to 0.6.0 version.

Adding those entries to package.keywords didn't change a possibility for rebuilding old stuff. Without exo-0.3 I am not even able to run xfce-terminal...

They were removed for a reason, so emerge -C those that are not in tree anymore.
