Bug 86485 – xfce-extra/exo can be compiled and used without dbus

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Petteri Räty (RETIRED) 2005-03-24 01:20:30 UTC]

I compiled exo and and xfce-extra/terminal without having dbus installed and terminal works without problems. So there should be a dbus use flag in exo. 

I used exo-0.3.0 and terminal-0.2.4 but I am quite certain this would work with other versions too. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge --oneshot --nodeps exo (don't have dbus installed)
2. emerge xfce-extra/terminal

Actual Results:

The release notes for terminal 0.2.4 show that DBUS is optional:

I'm attempting to get the alpha keyword added to both xfce-extra/exo and
xfce-extra/terminal. Unfortunately dbus also does not have the alpha keyword.

From editing the ebuilds and emerging I've also found that exo does not depend
on dbus and this could be changed to a USE flag - it would help a lot in getting
exo and Terminal onto alpha machines.

I'm happy to do a little testing if necessary.

I don't see how this needs 104951. Making the use flag does not depend on the
version of dbus in the DEPEND. Cardoe: Please feel free to add the depend back
with an explanation.

should be fixed now in latest build
