Summary: sys-kernel/pf-sources should inform users about optional RDEPENDs

Description Morse 2012-01-20 19:25:07 UTC
tuxonice-sources have these rdepends:

RDEPEND="${RDEPEND}
        >=sys-apps/tuxonice-userui-1.0
        || ( >=sys-power/hibernate-script-2.0 sys-power/pm-utils )"

Since pf-sources include tuxonice (as said here http://pf.natalenko.name/), it sgould also include its rdepends.

Reproducible: Always

No. These are optional runtime dependencies. We don't want to enforce users to merge these packages if they never plan on using them. However, an elog message may be an equally good option
