Bugzilla Bug 32290

i want to emerge grace:
===============================================
emerge -pu grace

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N    ] dev-libs/fftw-2.1.5  
[ebuild     U ] sys-libs/zlib-1.1.4-r2 [1.1.4-r1] 
[ebuild     U ] app-arch/zip-2.3-r2 [2.3-r1] 
[ebuild  N    ] dev-libs/libIDL-0.8.2  
[ebuild  N    ] net-www/mozilla-1.4-r3  
[ebuild  N    ] app-sci/netcdf-3.5.0-r2  
[ebuild  N    ] media-libs/t1lib-1.3.1  
[ebuild  N    ] media-gfx/grace-5.1.12-r1  
===============================================
emerge -p opera

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild   R   ] net-www/opera-7.21  
================================================

reading the ebuild correctly, grace should be happy with opera, and should not 
want to install mozilla.

i don't want to install mozilla, cause opera is already there. i think there a 
bug ...

Thanks for reporting. What you have expected is right and this is a
bug.However,
it is a bug in Portage. If you specify -u or -U when you run emerge, ||
dependency
calculation will not work correctly. The only reason why I put the dependency
there is that it will not be able to use helpviewer when you don't have any
browsers listed in DEPEND. Anyhow, netscape was hardcoded to the default
browser before grace-5.1.7.ebuild and detecting the default browser is
optional,
I remove all the browsers from DEPEND for the time being. You may change
the browser with GRACE_HELPVIEWER environment variable.

Sorry, it doesn't depend on #29848 but #29849...

virtual/web-browser in order?

We have virtual/textbrowser, which means text based web-browserssuch as w3m,
w3m-m17n, w3mmee, lynx, links, elinks and so on,so probably virtual/graphicalbrowser
is better?
