Bug 176255 – media-fonts/corefonts depends on app-arch/cabextract

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jacopo 2007-04-27 15:15:37 UTC]

corefonts depends on cabextract, but the dependence is not required in the ebuild.

Reproducible: Always

sure it is.  that's how we get the good stuff on the inside out.

src_unpack() {
    for exe in ${A} ; do
        echo ">>> Unpacking ${exe} to ${WORKDIR}"
        cabextract --lowercase ${DISTDIR}/${exe} > /dev/null \
            || die "failed to unpack ${exe}"
    done
}

I meant the other way around... for some strange reasons I didn't get the dependence. I guess I had /var messed up. Sorry about that
