You will have to keyword the following: app-misc/beagle dev-libs/libbeagle dev-dotnet/dbus-sharp dev-dotnet/dbus-glib-sharp dev-dotnet/taglib-sharp You will want to build Beagle with "-eds" otherwise that will add additional deps on evolution-data-server etc which you probably don't need since you use thunderbird. Also, don't build Nautilus or Yelp with the "beagle" USE flag, the stable versions (2.20) of both depend on beagle-0.2.18 If you face problems, feel free to mail this list or catch me (bheekling) or Arun (Ford_Prefect) on #gentoo-desktop @ FreeNode or #dashboard @ GimpNet (depending on whether the question is gentoo-specific or beagle-specifi ;) > > Should things behave as I expect them to behave?

Once again, feel free to contact me or Arun if you face problems. This will help us as well since Arun has recently started pushing for getting Beagle stabilised with GNOME 2.22, and we would appreciate it if we could get some testers :) -- ~Nirbheek Chauhan -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
