Well, with bare X up, I decided it was time to install a window manager.
I picked xfce4 and icewm.
I emerged xfce4, and after a lot of packages, it finally told me:
reemerge x11-libs/cairo with the X USE flag set
Well, I emerged icewm with no problems, then went back to xfce4 by
changing my use flags and asking it to reemerge everything that involved a
use-flag change. My new use flags were set in /etc/make.conf as
USE="cjk unicode X xprint"
This choked, on x11-apps/xclock-1.0.2.
The key messages seem to be:
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.1/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld:
warning: libexpat.so.0, needed by
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.1/../../../libfontconfig.so, not found (try
using -rpath or -rpath-link)
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.1/../../../libfontconfig.so: undefined
reference to `XML_SetElementHandler'
Could it be that some package failed to set some key dependency, and that
as a result libexpat.so.0 had not been created? I could of course try to
find which package should have created libexpat.so.0, or go on emerging
and try to skip xclock (if I knew how to do that), but I thought it might
be good to report this problem, and ask advice, in case
(a) one of you could advise me how best to get past this point, or
(b) it really is a problem in gentoo, and someone might want to fix it.
I'm starting to wonder, by the way, whether most beginners with gentoo
have this much trouble, or whether I'm just knowledgeable enough to blunder
into problems other miss in blissful ignorance, and not yet knowledgeable
enough to avoid them :-)
I paste in the complete
