Bug 302886 – upgrading to app-text/poppler-0.12.3 cause some blocks

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Maxim Koltsov (RETIRED) 2010-01-30 16:13:57 UTC]

Functionality of dev-libs/poppler-utils was moved to app-text/poppler, but some programs, such as cups, still require dev-libs-poppler-utils.
For example, net-print/cups is depending on virtual/poppler-utils, but it must depend on app-text/poppler[utils]

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Unmask
=virtual/poppler-0.12.3-r1 ~x86
=virtual/poppler-glib-0.12.3-r2 ~x86

Sorry, first patch is wrong, it was created with wrong diff command - i swapped arguments.

[Comment 4 Rafał Mużyło 2010-01-30 19:06:43 UTC]

Most likely INVALID.

Shouldn't hat be:
'=virtual/poppler-utils-0.12.3-r1' ?

Yes, excuse me for disturbing you, I was wrong. I fixed my package.keywords and now there is no blocks. And can you explain me why we need virtual packages for poppler and poppler-utils?

[Comment 6 Rafał Mużyło 2010-01-31 17:46:58 UTC]

Let's close it with a proper resolution, shall we ?

As for the virtuals, there was a historical reason behind it,
recently fixed by using EAPI=2 in all packages that needed it.
