Bugzilla Bug 83058

Specifically it falls in two categories.  Rosegarden tries to pull in the
entire kdemultimedia-meta package as a dependency, when it should only be
looking for the split ebuilds it absolutely needs.

emerge -pvt rosegarden

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

If the dependencies are just satisfied by meta ebuilds, then it looses any
advantage of splitting them up.


Another similar situation I found with the mandrake-artwork package.  In this
case the kde dependency could only be resolved with the 3.3.x monolithic
package.

emerge -pvt mandrake-artwork

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

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge rosegarden or emerge mandrake-artwork
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Tried to either install the entire kdemultimedia-meta package or an older kde 
monolithic package. 

Expected Results:  
Emerge should have correctly detected the split ebuilds and satisfied the 
dependencies.

Can you tell us what the explicit dependencies of these packages are?

For reference, here's the list of packages still needing to be corrected, if
someone wants to help.

This bug won't be ever fixed unless the maintainer of the concerned ebuilds are
not in CC.

*** Bug 100163 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

According to headers #included in sources, mail-client/kbiff should only need
kdelibs. Ebuild changed accordingly.

klvemkdvdv and kdenlive are fixed (kdenlive alredy, klvemkdvd i've looked and  
find no reference to kdedsdk, and had confirmations of it working without 
kdesdk at all; the spec file doesn't report it, too). 
 

noteedit and musicman fixed. 
 

*** Bug 97973 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

The following packages have been fixed:  
  
media-gfx/kst  
sci-calculators/fung-calc 
sci-chemistry/kemistry 
sci-mathematics/koctave 
 
Work is done for the sci herd. 

Came here from a "emerge -pv fusionx-aqua" and noticing it tries to install
kdebase-meta. I'm not entirely sure what it needs, otherwise I'd submit a patch
myself.

I corrected the last ones, everything should be fixed now.
