Description Leonid Kabanov 2004-12-09 20:07:27 UTC

Folowing packages depend on mail-client/mailx instead of virtual/mailx:
app-admin/amanda
app-admin/hpasm
sys-apps/logwatch
app-admin/logsentry
net-firewall/psad
This dependency should be fixed to allow use nail package instead mailx

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge nail
2. emerge -p amanda


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

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[blocks B     ] mail-client/nail (from pkg mail-client/mailx-8.1.2.20021129-r4)
[ebuild  N    ] mail-client/mailx-support-20030215  
[ebuild  N    ] net-libs/liblockfile-1.03-r1  
[ebuild  N    ] mail-client/mailx-8.1.2.20021129-r4  
[ebuild  N    ] app-admin/amanda-2.4.4_p3  


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

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N    ] app-admin/amanda-2.4.4_p3

I've taken care of all except net-firewall/psad. Bryan, can you fix that one please?

As Bryan fixed net-firewall/psad, I'm closing this one. Thanks for reporting!

Comment 3 Leonid Kabanov 2005-01-11 02:36:38 UTC

sys-apps/logwatch still unfixed:
$ grep mailx /usr/portage/sys-apps/logwatch/*ebuild
/usr/portage/sys-apps/logwatch/logwatch-4.3.2.ebuild:   mail-client/mailx"
/usr/portage/sys-apps/logwatch/logwatch-5.0.ebuild:     mail-client/mailx"
/usr/portage/sys-apps/logwatch/logwatch-5.2.2.ebuild:   mail-client/mailx"
