Description Markus Saarinen 2006-05-27 02:34:57 UTC

If the dialog package is not installed, running net-setup will just silently
exit back to prompt; livecd-tools needs to depend on it.

Alternatively, if there is some reason not to add the dependency, net-setup
should atleast tell the user why nothing is happening.

You're totally right... I just fixed this in the ebuild.
