When xbmc crashes, it calls lsb-release for it's crashdump (without checking if it exists). lsb-release should be added to RDEPEND so that xbmc devs can get complete debug logs from gentoo users. Reproducible: Always
not going to happen. i see only two places where lsb_release is used: - tools/Linux/xbmc.sh.in - xbmc/utils/SystemInfo.cpp the former does check for it first while the latter the ebuild already patches. so you're going to need to provide real details as to what isnt working for you.
Hmm, that's strange. I have a debug log from a pre-10.0 XBMC install which calls lsb-release directly (and it wasn't on my system). I'll need to spend some time figuring out what version of xmbc I was running, what ebuild version I installed from and so on. The lsb-release replacement with sed seems to have been in the ebuilds for quite some time, so my install was probably made with an ebuild that _did_ have the sed call.
