Description Brian De Wolf 2010-09-02 18:36:52 UTC

The minimal USE flag in the 1.4.5 version of the Munin ebuild could install less without impairing the function of a Munin node.  More specifically, Log4perl is not required by the node but it always listed as a dependency, and the make targets can be modified to not install master-only files.  Both of these are documented in the INSTALL document distributed with Munin.

I have created a patch that implements these changes to the current ebuild.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. USE="minimum" emerge munin

Actual Results:  
Log4perl is still installed, files only used by the master are installed.

Expected Results:  
Only the minimal set of required packages and files should have been installed.
