Description alex f 2003-07-04 04:43:07 UTC
for example media-gfx/imagemagick depends on app-text/dgs. yet when you do 'qpkg
-q dgs' after emerging imagemagick, qpkg does not bring up imagemagick as it
should. another example would be swig which is a dependency for subversion.

Reproducible: Always

We're moving qpkg to use portage. That way, we'll get all deps calculated correctly.

well it's currently messed up:

From looking at the ebuilds I can tell you that most of those do not depend on glib-1.2 but glib-2+.  Is that (depending on a specific version) a different bug than this (missing out dependencies) though?
Comment 3 Julien Allanos (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-02-11 15:06:04 UTC
same here. it seems qpkg -q doesn't take slots in account.
Comment 4 Marius Mauch (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-08-21 12:54:32 UTC
Yep, that "feature" is broken by design. Also qpkg is deprecated.
Comment 5 alex f 2004-08-22 06:35:57 UTC
What is the new tool to check dependencies if qpkg is deprecated? I don't know of a substitute for 'qpkg -q'.
