Bug 376015 – media-libs/mesa-7.11_rc2: suspect runtime-depends

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description nzqr 2011-07-22 15:25:45 UTC]

It's USE flags:
[ebuild   R    ] media-libs/mesa-7.11_rc2  USE="gallium nptl pic* shared-dricore shared-glapi -bindist -classic -debug -egl -gles -llvm -motif -openvg (-selinux)" VIDEO_CARDS="nouveau -intel -mach64 -mga -r128 -radeon -savage -sis -tdfx -via -vmware" 0 kB

and it pulls in RDEPENDS:

dev-libs/libxml2[python]
>=app-admin/eselect-python-20091230

but I'd not found any python scripts or binaries linked with libxml2.so in built mesa.

Reproducible: Always

Could libxml2 be needed in DEPEND (but not RDEPEND) for some documentation or something?

I don't see eselect-python listed in any of the Mesa ebuilds.

[Comment 3 Chí-Thanh Christopher Nguyễn 2011-07-31 10:07:02 UTC]

I added the dependency for bug 323183.
Probably it is correct that having it in DEPEND is sufficient.

>Probably it is correct that having it in DEPEND is sufficient.

Yes, in DEPEND, but not in RDEPEND.

[Comment 5 Matt Turner 2011-07-31 16:09:07 UTC]

OK, fixed.

I think this might be made better if the libxml2 dependency is conditional based on documentation generation.

[Comment 6 Matt Turner 2011-07-31 18:47:56 UTC]

Ah. I think the dependency on eselect-python is because of bug 341037. Nothing we can do for Mesa.
