emerge =x11-libs/libXt-1.0.2 && emerge xorg-x11 OR emerge =x11-libs/libXmu-1.0.2 && emerge xorg-x11 x.org 7 is now stable, so there is no particular need for following the howto. If a package fail, then emerge that package separately, and when it is emerge, try to emerge x.org again. I've had several breakdowns today, due to what appears to be semi-circular dependencies. Portage do not handle those very well. One of the packages that failed during emerging x11, pulled in 78 packages when emerging it separately. libXmu also gave me problems. -Kristian -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
