Description:   Opened: 2006-06-30 12:25 0000 
Trying to build lilypond-2.8.0-r1 causes emerge to build ghostscript-gnu, even
though ghostscript-gpl should satisfy dependencies.  The ebuild currently only
recognizes ghostscript-esp-8, ghostscript-afpl-8, and ghostscript-gnu-8 even
though ghostscript-afpl-8 appears to have been deprecated in favor of
ghostscript-gpl-8.  The ebuild should be modified to allow ghostscript-gpl-8 as
a dependency.

------- Comment #1 From Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2006-07-04 00:42:24 0000 ------- 
It should be modified to use the virtual instead...

------- Comment #2 From Ryan Van Wagoner 2006-07-05 06:34:18 0000 ------- 
It appears that lilypond depends on ghostscript-8 or higher.  There does not
seem to be a way to require that a virtual dependency has a minimal version
number since this would not make sense with completely independent packages
that satisfy a virtual, unlike the situation with ghostscript packages which
all derive from the same codebase.  If lilypond can work with ghostscript prior
to version 8, then a virtual dependency would be the best way to go.

------- Comment #3 From Christian Faulhammer 2006-08-20 01:29:46 0000 ------- 
afpl has been removed some time ago. All ghostscript ebuilds have version 8
stable, so the virtual can be used. I am closing this bug?

------- Comment #4 From Christian Faulhammer 2006-08-20 03:30:48 0000 ------- 
genstef was so kind to commit dependency on the virtual, so I close it. Thank
you for watching our program.
