# equery d xorg-x11
[ Searching for packages depending on xorg-x11... ]
kde-base/kwin-3.5.2-r1

According to http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/x/x11/porting-modular-x-howto.xml no package is allowed to depend on a meta package, which I assume xorg-x11 is. I am running kwin without xorg-x11 and it works, so the dependency seems to be wrong.

(It has been reported that media-video/kaffeine-0.7.1 also has this problem, but I have not confirmed it.)

Well no, sorry. You've misread the ebuild. It depends either on the modular libs *or* on xorg-x11.

I did not misread the ebuild. equery did it for me. Maybe the bug is in equery?

Which equery version are you using?

no feedback, assuming dupe of bug 101377

Since bug 101377 has been fixed in gentoolkit-0.2.1 and I have this bug with gentoolkit-0.2.2_pre4 it can not be a duplicate of bug 101377.
