Description Luis Medinas 2012-01-25 20:12:53 UTC 
Transmission 2.42 can be build without libappindicator:


   Build GTK+ client:                                 yes
      * libappindicator for an Ubuntu-style tray:     no


On GNOME and other WM doesn't make much sense to have transmission to depend on libappindicator.

Reproducible: Always

...and it requires gtk+:3, which isn't the thing I am happy with.
Comment 2 Tomáš Chvátal (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-01-26 09:44:38 UTC 
It is technically automagic, feel free to patch it to make optional, I can't test it as i do not have any gui interface.
Comment 3 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-01-26 15:08:16 UTC 
It should be optional and libappindicator:0 SLOT is deprecated and should not be used in any case for any new ebuilds at all.
