Description Roy Marples (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-05-15 05:53:53 UTC
I have no wish to install openldap on my system, yet kde-base/certmanager requires dirmngr which has a hard dep on openldap.

Please add a ldap USE flag to certmanager so I can choose not to have dirmngr installed

RDEPEND="${DEPEND}
         ldap? ( >=app-crypt/dirmngr-0.9.3 )"

Forcing openldap over users is surely something I don't want to do, specially considering security concerns.

I've commented out the dep while deciding upon this, myself I'd vote for dropping the dep entirely, and just have users merge it if they want to, as it doesn't require rebuild.

I vote for making it a ldap? ( dirmngr ) depend. Also I think pinentry should be added to the dependencies as it used for asking the password.

Yes and no. Probably it would be better to have it as an (optional) runtime dependency of gnupg 1.9, as (a) dirmngr is invoked via gpgsm. Still, a warning message that X509 CRL and OSCP support is missing without it, would be in order. Similar for pinentry: Having it installed as a PDEPEND of gnupg-1.9 as gpg-agent is the program using it, would make more sense, than having the dependency in every program that uses gpg-agent.

Post install message suffices hopefully.
