Bug 81660 – iproute2 needs a berkdb USE flag

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Roy Marples (RETIRED) 2005-02-11 13:03:02 UTC]

Currently iproute2 requires sys-libs/db unless the minimal USE flag is specified. However, this just installs tc and nothing else. Only arpd (part of iproute2) requires berkdb, so we needs a berkdb USE flag so we can built a system with iproute2 and without berkdb.

Also, sys-libs/db is in the system profile - why? Nothing in system has a hard dependancy on it.

Created attachment 51026 [details, diff]
adds berkdb USE flag


and disables arpd in the makefile when berkdb is not enabled

why must you make such complicated sed's ?

doesnt this work: -e '/^TARGETS=/s: arpd : :'

That works too :)

Guess my sed mojo isn't as mojoish as yours :/
