Description Adam Chodorowski 2003-05-20 10:48:24 UTC

When emerging binutils (2.13.90.0.18 to be precise, but it seems to apply to all
ebuilds) the 'gasp' tool is not compiled or installed. Gasp is the Assembler
Macro Preprocessor, and is used by some programs. 


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge binutils
2. gasp


Actual Results:  
command not found: gasp

It was removed.  We should rather try to fix packages that use it.

        * gasp.c: Delete.  It has been deprecated.
