I'm appending a app-emulation/xcopilot tentative ebuild to fix modular X11 dependencies. libSM and libXext are in RDEPEND but not in DEPEND, which could denote that they are false dependencies. However, they are opened by xcopilot when it runs (verified by strace). libXdmcp does not appear in the lists done by the testing scripts from http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/x/x11/porting-modular-x-howto.xml, but appear in a strace when xcopilot runs. So I added it to RDEPEND. Please be patient as it's my first hand at this stuff :-D

Hi, In short, x11-libs should go in RDEPEND and x11-proto and build tools (like makedepend) should go to DEPEND.
Created an attachment (id=80626) [edit] second try fixed DEPENDS and RDEPENDS. Should app-arch/dpkg go in DEPEND?
Yup, that's correct. virtual/libc can be wiped out (since it is part of system) and you probably don't want to have DEPEND=${RDEPEND} here since they differ.
Created an attachment (id=80627) [edit] third try ok, fixed.
Thanks, in cvs.
