Description Rork 2007-02-24 09:21:42 UTC
When pretending to install nautilus-sendto-0.8-r1, portage wanted to install sylpheed too, because I had my own claws-mail-cvs installed, which is obviously not present in the list of mailers depended on when nautilus-sendto is installed with use flag 'sylpheed'.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install a mailer which provides 'virtual/sylpheed' but that is *not* in the list of mailers checked for when 'sylpheed' use flags is set
2. Pretend to install nautilus-sendto-0.8-r1
3.

Actual Results:  
Portage wanted to install 'mail-client/sylpheed' as a dependency.

Expected Results:  
It should not want to install 'sylpheed', as I already had a 
sylpheed-compatible mailer installed, i.e. one that does provide 'virtual/sylpheed'.

Make nautilus-sendto depend on virtual/sylpheed

This patch replaces the list of sylpheed-compatible mailer dependencies with a single dependency on 'virtual/sylpheed', which is provided by all packages in the current list (namely, sylpheed itself, claws-mail and sylpheed-claws).

Except that mail-client/claws-mail doesn't even provide the pointless virtual.
