Bugzilla Bug 219003

dependencies are not there. this was seen on gentoo-alt/prefix, where there are
no X libraries during bootstrap, but i believe this is a more general problem
:)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge groff with USE=X on a system without libX* (or old, damaged or
otherwise unusable X libs)

Created an attachment (id=150686) [edit]
proposed patch for sys-apps/groff, which adds dependencies

ping...?

the proposed list seems kind of excessive for something like groff ... if the X
team could take a look, that'd be great

what i did was putting all pakages in the dependencies, from which libraries
where present on the link line... of course it could be that some of them are
implicit through others anyway, but still they are linked directly (and
seemingly hardcoded, since there where none installed when i tried building,
and copied the link line.)

libXaw is the only one you need, the rest are implicitly pulled in by the dep
tree.

Markus: feel free to commit the proposed patch here

ok... i will commit the one-liner -> i.e. only the dep to Xaw instead of the
full list. is this ok?

i'd commit the patch posted here ... as you say, the package links against all
of those libs

oh man... still having a hard time checking out a gentoo-x86 tree from cvs.
seems like the disks on the server are full :(

Markus, you committed this, so please update this bug as well.  Also, it is
useful for future reference if you mention the bug number in the ChangeLog.

err. forgot the bug number, yes :) i updated the changelog (and the manifest
after thinking about it....)
