Description petre rodan (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-06-10 00:44:44 UTC 
please add libmix as RDEPEND for all netcat ebuilds, since it's a dynamically linked library needed by your application. [1]
 when installing from binary packages (think catalyst or an enterprise setup), only RDEPEND is checked and that one is missing in your case. [2]
