Maybe stating the obvious here, but have you tried to remove and then install gnome-icon-theme again? Happy new year all !!!

Try : pkg-config gnome-icon-theme --modversion if that reports a wrong number then you may have an old pkgconfig file lying around making it go nuts. For some odd reason i notice the gnome-icon-theme package-config files not being in their standard /usr/lib/pkgconfig but in /usr/share/pkgconfig with about 2 other files ( gtk-doc , icon-naming-utils ) and I wonder why. But cat any flles matching gnome-icon-theme.pc in both those dirs and if you have more than one, then that could be your problem, and deleting the older one -should- do the trick. -- /ent Fredric (aka theJackal) -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Can someone perhaps tell me how portage goes about determining the installed version to give me a direction to start trying to figure this out. This isn't exactly portage determining the installed version of gnome-icon-theme. It's the configure script of gnome-applets which is unaware of the existance of portage checking the environment before the actual compile. It uses the return value of: # pkg-config --exists --print-errors gnome-icon-theme = 2.15.91 to determine whether it's requirement is fulfilled. Maybe you have some orphaned pkg-config file (.pc) as Kent suggests. The output of e.g.: # pkg-config --debug --modversion gnome-icon-theme 21 | grep gnome-icon-theme will tell you where the .pc file is. If you have app-portage/gentoolkit installed you can use `equery belongs $FILE` to see if it's orphaned (i.e. if it belongs to no package.). Orphaned files like that can be safely deleted.
