Bug 389761 – sys-apps/ucspi-unix should not RDEPEND on dev-libs/bglibs

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Faustus 2011-11-06 20:59:27 UTC]

dev-libs/bglibs is a build-time only dependency, since it consists of static libraries.

Seems to be true for many other packages, too:
app-admin/srlog2
net-ftp/twoftpd
net-mail/mailfront
net-mail/qmail-autoresponder
net-mail/qmail-qfilter
sys-apps/ucspi-proxy

Appears to have already been magically fixed with the EAPI bump in 0.36-r4.

Please file separate bug reports for the other packages.

Starting with EAPI 2, RDEPEND is empty by default, even when DEPEND is defined?

Appears to be true only from EAPI=4:
