Description Christoph Gysin 2008-01-29 08:08:26 UTC

I'm trying to build a tiny system, and mgetty refuses to merge without pulling ghostscript in. AFAIK ghostscript is only used for fax, so USE=-fax should remove the RDEPEND.

Actually netpbm dependence should also be conditioned by fax USE flag.
Fixed in 1.1.36-r1 (without revision bump).
