Re: [gentoo-user] Name error / PF is null???

Too late... I looked at the ebuild and it seemed like the X11R6 src files that were failing were for a doc USE flag.  Tried -doc in make.conf and again that didn't work so I deleted the doc? and everything after it (src6 and src7) up to the closing quotes.  The digest build worked after that and now the emerge xorg-unichrome is running.  Keeping my fingers crossed that it compiles properly.

Thanks for all your help, Nick!!

try going:

emerge -f (whatever the name of the ebuild is)

then running the digest thing.
