Description:   Opened: 2002-03-26 21:30 0000 
Installing pcmcia-cs installs XFree even if X is not in the USE variables. The
only X specific thing in pcmcia-cs is cardinfo, which should not be required.

------- Comment #1 From Daniel Robbins (RETIRED) 2002-03-28 00:36:19 0000 ------- 
Chad -- it would be nice to remove the X dependency.  Cardinfo is as I
understand it a bit of a lame-o app anyway.

------- Comment #2 From Jim Nutt 2002-03-28 01:04:06 0000 ------- 
cardinfo is useful, it's just not essential. and it's a bit surprising to start
installing pcmcia-cs on your laptop, and find it's dependent on X windows!

------- Comment #3 From Chad Huneycutt 2002-03-28 09:22:10 0000 ------- 
Well, I can certainly remove the dependence on X, but the problem with the X
stuff installing even when not in USE points to another problem that needs to be
investigated.

The DEPEND and RDEPEND lines look like this:

DEPEND="sys-kernel/linux-headers X? ( virtual/x11 x11-libs/xforms )"
RDEPEND="X? ( virtual/x11 x11-libs/xforms )"
