Description Daniel Drake (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-02 11:57:12 UTC
fontconfig should RDEPEND on freetype, there's no doubt about that, but as some fontconfig versions (e.g. 2.3.2-r1, current stable) do not specify RDEPEND in the ebuild, the implicit RDEPEND=DEPEND gets overwritten by autotools.eclass

Please fix the affected ebuilds, or give me the OK to do so, by adding:
RDEPEND=${DEPEND}
Comment 1 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-03 01:22:03 UTC
On a side note, autotools.eclass is now fixed to not polute RDEPEND:

Comment 2 Joe Jezak (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-04 23:04:13 UTC
When you do this, can you also move the WANT_AUTOMAKE to above the inherit line so that the automake deps are added correctly?  As is, it won't pull in automake-1.9 as required, so it fails on new installs where automake-1.9 isn't present (at least it did here on ppc).

Committed. If this causes any problems, send em my way.
