https://qa-reports.gentoo.org/output/genrdeps/rindex/dev-util/gdbus-codegen as pointed out by mgorny tells that most or all versions/revisions of gimp are RDEPENDing on gdbus-codegen. It is highly unlikely that it is needed at runtime, as gdbus-codegen is a build time tool to generate D-Bus code from an dbus interface description during the build process. Please review and adjust to only DEPEND if indeed appropriate, as is likely (unless it actually doesn't use the tool at all during build time - that might be from release tarballs if the code is pregenerated into tarball, and autoreconf alike stuff doesn't get ran).
Hi Mart, good catch: the generated files are part of the tarball already, so 9999 needs it for DEPEND, the others don't. Post-commit review welcome. If you see something odd, please re-open. commit d749367fa7030bb9f71707d775219d16029255d1 Author: Sebastian Pipping <sping@g.o> Date: Fri Jul 29 18:48:05 2016 +0200 media-gfx/gimp: Fix dep on gdbus-codegen (bug #590006) Package-Manager: portage-2.2.28 media-gfx/gimp/gimp-2.9.2-r2.ebuild | 6 +++++- media-gfx/gimp/gimp-2.9.4.ebuild | 6 +++++- media-gfx/gimp/gimp-9999.ebuild | 2 +- 3 files changed, 11 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/commit/d749367fa7030bb9f71707d775219d16029255d1
