Bugzilla Bug 194488

I have test an ebuild with keyword : ~amd64 and the compilation works.

The programm has no problem after compilation.

Please release it the 0.7.5 version with keyword ~amd64

Reproducible: Always

Andrej, when testing this, I get lots of missing binaries. Is that ok or are
those really missing deps? If those are optional deps, could you maybe add a
post-install message about them? And is there any test plan for this?

Cyril, your input to the above questions would help, too, of course. :-)

Those come from near the top of /usr/sbin/backup-manager, calls similar to:

zip=$(which zip) || true

The script simply searches for various tools it might need, without checking if
there are any jobs configured to use them.

I was wondering if I should add those as optional deps, but decided against it
in the end. The application gives nice verbose errors if it is missing some of
them, such as:

actions.sh:                             error "The BM_TARBALL_FILETYPE conf key
is set to \"zip\" but zip is not installed."


Do you think the optional deps are needed here (via USE flags) ?

I don't think so, this kind of USE flags are evil. A pkg_postinst message can
always help.

added ~amd64
