Bug 21606 – [PATCH] updated dependency handling in gcc-3.3.ebuild

• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Stefan Knoblich (RETIRED) 2003-05-24 07:57:28 UTC]

with this patch dependencies are handled better in case USE="X java" is set 
 
 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge gcc 
2. 
3. 
Actual Results:  
if USE="X java" is set, emerge gcc wouldn't install X (because it's not a dependency) 

Expected Results:  
should emerge X an build with swing / awt support

updated dependency handling

[Comment 2 Martin Schlemmer (RETIRED) 2003-06-03 06:51:46 UTC]

No can do (the if [ `use foo`] stuff), as it mess portage's dep cache.

hmm sry didn't know that, i could rewrite it using standard depedency syntax, 
but it would look extremely ugly ...

new version, without that if [ `use bla` ... stuff

behaves like the old one, but should be more dep cache friendly (thx mholzer
for pointing this out)

(did a quick test using emerge -pve and the bootstrap / build USE flags ...)

Azarah: is this patch still valid (or needed) for gcc-3.3.1 ebuilds?

[Comment 6 Joshua Kinard 2003-10-30 14:11:52 UTC]

No info provided on the validity of this bug.  Resolving as NEEDINFO.
