media-tv/freevo needs dev-python/numeric as a dependency. I never known this because numeric was pulled up by something, now that depclean got rid of it freevo won't start. Please add dev-python/numeric as a dependancy Maybe older freevo ebuilds are affected too This is the error message from freevo: Can't find all Python dependencies: No module named Numeric You need to recompile pygame after installing Numeric! Not all requirements of Freevo are installed on your system. Please check the INSTALL file for more information. Reproducible: Always
Created attachment 171218 [details] freevo-1.8.2-r1.ebuild
And pygame must be recompiled after installing numeric.
Thanks for reporting this missing dependency, assigning to maintainers

You should have twisted-web installed. The ebuild should already pull it in. Try re-emerging it if something went broken

Same error here! # emerge -vp freevo These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

Confirmed; i'm reinstalling a new box, and only did an emerge -av freevo and missing numeric aswell. I do have -minimal in my use flag set though. I'm guessing however, that numeric is only needed when building freevo with some of the game options?
No, it shouldn't be game-related. Freevo doesn't start without numeric, even if all game stuff is disabled.
Freevo needs the pygame, as it uses that for all input/keyboard handling.

Please open a new bug if this error persists.
freevo 1.9.0 does not require numeric anymore, please upgrade.
