Bug 299008 – x11-libs/libdrm automagic src_test() dep on x11-libs/cairo and sys-fs/udev

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Nathan Phillip Brink (binki) (RETIRED) 2009-12-30 19:05:09 UTC]

It appears that this dependency is intended for use during src_test(). This dependency is automagic, but only affect test binaries which are not installed. The only case where this is harmful is when cairo.pc is installed but libcairo.so is broken. However, RESTRICT="test" is set. Thus, it would make sense not to build these files unless if the test-phase is enabled.

I only tested x11-libs/libdrm-2.4.17.

./configure fragment:
``
checking for CAIRO... yes
checking for LIBUDEV... yes
''

OK, sorry, this is a big bug report about a problem that essentially doesn't exist. Do what you will with it ;-).

The attachment for bug 300646 looks promising.

I just ran into this while doing some cross-compiling. It's trivial to fix now, just give --disable-cairo-tests to ./configure.

should be all set now in the tree; thanks for the report!
