Description Jean-Claude Repetto 2006-01-28 13:54:27 UTC

If pppd is not installed, dund does not work

true. i've been playing with dund recently and got bitten by this. wondering whether to go with a ppp useflag or just straight off depend on ppp.

Comment 2 Henrik Brix Andersen 2006-02-06 12:45:16 UTC

Well, as bluez-utils can be used without ever using dund I would prefer a USE flag over a hard dependency.

so rather than an RDEPEND, might as well just put it in /etc/conf.d/bluetooth so people know that they have to install net-dialup/ppp if they enable dund.

Comment 4 Henrik Brix Andersen 2006-02-06 15:08:45 UTC

Yes, good idea.
