This probably is what causes bug #200163 as the arts USE flag removes the dependency over qtlibs, but does not remove the libraries using qt3. kingtaco@gentoo.org 2007-11-24 19:49:56 0000 logic is fixed in emul-linux-x86-soundlibs-20071114-r1 jakub@gentoo.org 2007-11-25 09:15:30 0000 *** Bug 200263 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** dizzy@roedu.net 2007-11-26 09:31:04 0000 I don't understand how is 200263 a duplicate of this bug? 200263 complains about qtlibs requiring soundlibs with arts and not providing any use flag to disable arts dependency in qtlibs at all. That problem is still unsolved unless I'm missing something. The problem is even worse than having some bloat on your system (ie soundlibs with arts) because it creates a cyclic dependency like this (I initially didn't have soundlibs with arts so now after emerge --sync I can't upgrade qtlibs): # emerge emul-linux-x86-qtlibs ... * emul-linux-x86-qtlibs requires arts support in app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-soundlibs. ... # USE=arts emerge -pv emul-linux-x86-soundlibs These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!
