I decided to move on from Gaim, since it is now masked. So I emerged pidgin, backed up ~/.gaim, unmerged gaim and tried to launch pidgin . . .
Hmm, it seems that I can launch /usr/bin/finch, that brings up an ncurses interface, but not pidgin. There is no pidgin binary! Have I missed out some necessary USE flag perhaps? $ pidgin -bash: pidgin: command not found # ls -la /usr/bin/pidgin ls: cannot access /usr/bin/pidgin: No such file or director # emerge -pDv pidgin These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild R ] net-im/pidgin-2.2.1 USE="dbus gstreamer ncurses nls perl spell -bonjour -debug -doc -eds -gadu -gnutls -groupwise -gtk -meanwhile -networkmanager -prediction -qq -sasl -silc -tcl -tk -zephyr" 0 kB Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB -- Regards, Mick
