I can't find USE gnome in neither /etc/make.conf, the xfce4-panel ebuild
nor the librsvg ebuild. It must be somewhere further down the line. I
just remove the librsvg option from the panel ebuild and everything
works fine. I just wonder what gain is accomplished by using srvg, apart
from rendering icons in the srvg format.
