Hey i was tryin to install icewm on my gentoox. When i do emerge icewm it begins downloading but it then says
checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
Package gnome-desktop-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gnome-desktop-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gnome-desktop-2.0' found

!!! ERROR: x11-wm/icewm-1.2.9 failed.
!!! Function econf, Line 303, Exitcode 1
!!! econf failed
I have no idea how to stop this from happenin. Please someone help me out a bit. I dont know if anyone else has had this problem, but i thought it could have something to do with my updates and whatnot so i reinstalled my gentoox and yet it still does this. The same thing happens when i try installing the regualr windowmaker.
* I have also tried doing this after downloading gdm, so i dont know why my econf is failing, but please someone help me.
