 |
|
Hi,
I have installed 2.6.18-gentoo-r3 and then Xorg and then KDE. I was able to pass through all these installations successfully. Now that I am trying to install firefox by using
| Code: |
emerge mozilla-firefox |
I get the below error message:
* Please re-emerge x11-libs/cairo with the X USE flag set
| Code: | !!!! ERROR: x11-libs/gtk+-2.8.19 failed.
Call stack:
ebuild.sh, line 1562: Called dyn_setup
ebuild.sh, line 665: Called pkg_setup
gtk+-2.8.19.ebuild, line 57: Called die
!!! Cairo needs the x flag set
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. |
Based on the error message I also did
| Code: | | USE="-X" emerge -av x11-libs/cairo |
and then tried emerge mozilla-firefox but the error message is still the same.
I tried this with KDE forum but I was informed that this is Gentoo's issue. Could any one of you please help me?
Thank you,
VinodRamu

hm, what about trying install cairo with X (not -X) as suggested 8O ? Do this:
| Code: | echo "x11-libs/cairo X" >> /etc/portage/package.use
emerge -av cairo |

Moved from Installing Gentoo to Portage & Programming.

Moved from Portage & Programming to Duplicate Threads, refer to topic "Please re-emerge [solved]".
As noted in the handbook USE flags specified via environment variables are not retained as persistent settings so, aside from when a given USE flag setting is itself transient in nature, use one of the persistent USE flag setting methods (/etc/make.conf, /etc/portage/package.use). Also, note that USE flags are case sensitive. |
