Re: gnome and Gentoo: accessibility problem

[John Covici <covici ccs covici com>]

So, after recompiling  and upgrading the c compiler (which I needed to
do anyway) to 5.3.0 gnome now works again -- yay.  I have no idea as
to what was the problem, which is scary in a certain sense, but I will
be glad its working and go on maybe to actually use it!

Thanks everyone.
