The latest Portage-stable AbiWord refuses to compile on my system, with either + or -gnome. (Currently I have the old 2.4.6 fully functional.) I am in the process of an emerge world, so all the dependencies of AbiWord are already up-to-date, plus several were rebuilt recently (like goffice). Not sure whether necessary, but ./.configure complained, so I installed dev-util/valgrind. I also tried this suggestion by CJoeB, to re-emerge XML-Parser, but to no avail. Below you will find the messages towards the error.
Could anyone suggest a work around? Thank you,
Liviu
