Hi,
Just look what it says - 'cairo requires X use flag' so simply add 'X' to make.conf and reemerge again.
Cheers,
Wojtek
PS Why don't you install a graphical environment first?

graphical environment? i have kde installed if that is what you mean.
i added USE="X" to make.conf
mybox daniel # emerge --unmerge x11-libs/cairo
mybox daniel # emerge x11-libs/cairo
and did the same with cairo, and it still complains the same thing
sorry for being noob |

emerge -pv cairo
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

[ebuild R ] x11-libs/cairo-1.4.10 USE="-X -debug -directfb -doc -glitz -opengl -svg -xcb" 0 kB

Well, it still says "-X", so X is disabled.
You need to add "X" to your use flags (without the "-" in front of it). The emerge cairo again. After that, continue where you left. |

Not that it is important, now that the topic is solved, but in case you want to know, if you are going to do that, you can do it this way:
Or even
| Code: |
USE="X"
USE="$USE hal"
|
make.conf is just a bash script, and as such, the bash syntax applies. |

Just a tip, if you don't want all of your use flags in one big line, you can do a couple of things. One is break the flags up into environment variables then combine them later:
| Code: | FLAGS1="X alsa hal"
FLAGS2="-gnome qt gtk"
USE="$FLAGS1 $FLAGS2" |
This makes USE="X alsa hal -gnome qt gtk"
Another option would be to append to the USE variable:
| Code: | USE="-gnome"
USE="$USE kde" |
Making USE="-gnome kde"
So that's just something you can do to organize your USE flags in /etc/make.conf. Ideally the best way to organize your flags would be by doing package specific flagging in /etc/portage/package.use, but that is a lot of work, and is practically only done for specific packages, not all. |
