Bug 315057 – x11-libs/libcompizconfig-0.8.4* should have libprotobuf in its RDEPEND

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Albert W. Hopkins 2010-04-13 20:37:10 UTC]

libcompizconfig seems to have a runtime dependency for libprotobuf, however it is not specified as such in the ebuild.  So if you you remove build-time dependencies compizconfig and friends will fail.  Also revdep-rebuild complains that you should recompile a bunch of compiz packages w/o libprotobuf, but that doesn't seem to be possible.


Reproducible: Always

This bug is no longer an issue.
It is already fixed in libcompizconfig-0.8.4-r1.
So please sync your tree and upgrade.

Hi,

Thank you for the update.  I did sync and actually I was already running libcompizconfig-0.8.4-r1 (sha256sum 7de10780ca6811ecaa3f7d5e2e5abb171e3e61c1a0a0941faa3b99263914fad4). This ebuild has dev-libs/protobuf in the DEPEND but not in the RDEPEND.  So on my system emerge --depclean wants to remove it, but it doesn't because it thinks I just need to rebuild compiz to remove the dependency (but of course that doesn't work).

So I believe this bug is still valid.

Thanks for the bug report. The dependency has now been fixed.
