Description Olivier DOLE 2011-08-24 13:25:40 UTC 
After vym-1.12.7 installation, I tried to use it and so save my project file.
Unfortunately I got an error: "Couldn't start zip to compress data." and so "save" step failed.
I have checked and app-arch/zip was not installed on my laptop.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Ensure that zip package is not installed:
# emerge --unmerge zip
2. Install vym:
# echo "=x11-misc/vym-1.12.7" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords/x11-app
# emerge vym
3. Run vym
4. Create a new project
5. Save the new project file
Actual Results:  
Saving file failed with the following error message: "Couldn't start zip to compress data."

Expected Results:  
File is correctly saved.

An easy workaround is to install: "appr-arch/zip" and everything is OK. But I think this should be present in the ebuild as a RDEPEND.

Fixed in CVS.
