Description:   Opened: 2007-08-20 17:45 0000 
x11-misc/xdg-utils-1.0.2 doesn't need app-text/xmlto. It installs correctly
even with USE="doc".

------- Comment #1 From Samuli Suominen 2007-08-20 18:02:45 0000 ------- 
Weird, I wonder why it bothers to check for it then..

Anyway, fixed.

------- Comment #2 From Doug Goldstein 2007-08-20 18:21:13 0000 ------- 
if it checks for it, it needs to be in DEPENDS.. It most likely does need it
for documentation which is configurable via ./configure.

------- Comment #3 From Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis 2007-08-20 18:32:42 0000 ------- 
That check is broken. I have no /usr/bin/xmlto, but the output of configure is:
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking for xmlto... /usr/bin/xmlto
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: creating scripts/Makefile
config.status: creating tests/Makefile

------- Comment #4 From Doug Goldstein 2007-08-20 18:45:00 0000 ------- 
Yeah I just looked into it, the check is flawed since it just defaults a value
when it can't find it to continue on. This is technically wrong. Also the files
that would be used by xmlto aren't even shipped in the tarball since the man
pages (which is what xmlto is used for) are pre-generated.

------- Comment #5 From Martin Väth 2009-06-07 09:26:13 0000 ------- 
May I ask why the xmlto dependency was re-added in xdg-utils-1.0.2-r3?

This is quite inconvenient since xdg-utils is currently the only "basic"
package depending unconditionally on xmlto which in turn has a huge bulk
of dependencies (docbook-xml-dts, docbook-xsl-stylesheets, sgml-common,
build-docbook-catalog, automake-1.5*).

So far, I never had any problems without xmlto, and in accordance with
comment #4 there is no obvious reason why xmlto should be needed at all
for xdg-utils (especially without the doc useflag).

  31 May 2009; Thomas Anderson <gentoofan23@gentoo.org>
  xdg-utils-1.0.2-r3.ebuild:
  Add missing dependency on app-text/xmlto.

@thomas: please comment.

------- Comment #7 From Thomas Anderson (tanderson) 2009-06-07 17:26:57 0000 ------- 
I've fixed that.

Sorry for the added dep, it looked to me like it really was needed.

------- Comment #8 From Martin Väth 2009-06-08 04:29:01 0000 ------- 
Thanks for the dependency cleanup.
