Hi, app-admin/rsyslog depends on dev-libs/json-c. dev-libs/json-c supports sub slots. If you would change the "dev-libs/json-c" line to "dev-libs/json-c:=" in rsyslog's ebuild (and bump the ebuild to EAPI 5) a new "dev-libs/json-c" sub slot would trigger an automatic rebuild of "app-admin/rsyslog". See https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Sub-slots_and_Slot-Operators PS: Is there a reason why you are listening all the dependencies in RDEPEND *and* DEPEND? Splitting things up would improve parallel builds (emerge --jobs), wouldn't it? Reproducible: Always
(In reply to Thomas D. from comment #0) > PS: Is there a reason why you are listening all the dependencies in RDEPEND > *and* DEPEND? Splitting things up would improve parallel builds (emerge > --jobs), wouldn't it? They all look like valid build time dependencies so DEPEND=$RDEPEND is correct. How would not having that improve parallel builds?
Hi Thomas, this is an interesting feature indeed which I hadn't used so far. I've pushed it on the latest ebuild, hope this will work well :) Cheers +*rsyslog-7.4.7 (24 Dec 2013) + + 24 Dec 2013; Ultrabug <ultrabug@gentoo.org> rsyslog-7.2.7.ebuild, + rsyslog-7.4.3.ebuild, rsyslog-7.4.4.ebuild, rsyslog-7.4.6.ebuild, + +rsyslog-7.4.7.ebuild, metadata.xml: + Fix #490992, #494150 thx to Marcin Mirosław & Andrey Volkov.
