Description:   Opened: 2002-08-28 12:40 0000 
The privoxy ebuild is missing a dependency for any textbrowser.
If you dont have links, lynx or w3 installed, the emerge of privoxy 2.9.14-beta
fails.

checking for w3m... no
checking for lynx... no
checking for links... no
configure: error: You need some kind of text browser to continue \(w3m, lynx and
links are supported\)

!!! ERROR: The ebuild did not complete successfully.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 8, Exitcode 1
!!! ./configure failed

OK, so the new situation in portage, when you rsync, will be that links, lynx
and w3m all PROVIDE a virtual/textbrowser.

And, privoxy will DEPEND on virtual/textbrowser.  Note that if you have none
installed, it will install links for you.

Please test :)

------- Comment #2 From fbusse@gmx.de 2002-08-30 01:37:35 0000 ------- 
OK, the dependency works.
But there is still one bug left:
The install-process adds the user/group privoxy, but the startscript doesn't
make any use of those, you need to add --user privoxy.privoxy to
/etc/init.d/privoxy, otherwise the new user doesn't make sense.
I think it would be also a good idea to use fixed UID's/GID's (just like NUT
does, it also needs new user/group, but it amkes use of -u/-g, so the UID will
be the same on all systems. That will not work of course if root installed an
user under this UID/GID)

------- Comment #3 From Seemant Kulleen (RETIRED) 2002-08-30 05:26:45 0000 ------- 
ok, handing off to nick for the user adding issue, since the compile issue is
sorted.

Sorry, this ebuild was made for bug 7163, not 7175, sorry for that.
