Hello folks,

I have Slackware on one partition; and Gentoo on another. I was able to
upgrade Slackware to Gnome 2.6 no problems. On Gentoo when I was trying
upgrade to Gnome 2.6 using emerge ; the update process failed on pango;
when I downloaded the same pango for Gnome 2.6; when I configured, make,
# make install -- absolutely no errors - what is causing the emerge pango
errors? If you need specific version numbers - I can boot back into my
Gentoo partition and try to emerge Gnome 2.6 again and get the error
message and version number.

Regards,

Honorato Echavez

Specific error messages would be great, too.

Here is the emerge problem the pango-1.40:

Here is the successful compile of pango-1.40 when I compile myself on my
gentoo side:

Any help would be appreciated.

The undefined symbols in your error messages relate to a patch taken from
Redhat relating to fonts somehow (I don't know how).

I just (re)emerged pango-1.40 and had no problems. So there must be some
problem on your machine -- but what?

Perhaps try re-emerging any packages which have anything to do with
fonts? For example: 'emerge fontconfig' first and if that doesn't help
then 'emerge xfree'.

These suggestions are not very helpful, I know, but if I had the same
problem that is what I would do: shotgun debugging :-/
