Bug 331039 – media-libs/giblib-1.2.4 should use EAPI-2 for its USE dependency

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description William Keaney 2010-08-03 13:47:24 UTC]

giblib depends on media-libs/imlib2 with USE="X", but doesn't check this dependency until the src_unpack() phase.
This causes Portage to complete dependency resolution, then fail during src_unpack().

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. USE="-X" emerge media-libs/imlib2
2. emerge -av media-libs/giblib

Actual Results:  
giblib's dependency on media-libs/imlib2 is satisfied, so building continues.
It then fails in the src_unpack phase, asking the user to re-emerge Imlib2 with USE="X"

Expected Results:  
Dependencies should be in DEPEND, not in src_unpack().

Attaching a patch in a moment.

Updates ebuild to EAPI-2 and adds USE dependency

Hi,

no need to do the check in src_unpack, use EAPI-2's src_prepare.
No need to do the check, portage assures +X on this dep.

Anyway, do you have a build.log displaying the error?

Michael

My patch removes the check from src_unpack, and instead adds DEPEND=">=media-libs/imlib2-1.0.3[X]", so I'm not sure what your comment is in reference to.
