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 attachment 150686 [details, diff] 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

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
(In reply to comment #6) > 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....)
