zinf is by no means a dep of eroaster. It's just another media player it can use. zinf requires a ton of packages on my system that are unnecessary when it can use xmms or even mpg123. Here's a patch to make it an optional use flag. --- eroaster-2.2.0_pre6.ebuild 2003-10-24 08:07:11.000000000 -0400 +++ eroaster-2.2.0_pre6-r1.ebuild 2004-02-16 10:23:53.000000000 -0500 @@ -2,7 +2,7 @@ # Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 # $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/app-cdr/eroaster/eroaster-2.2.0_pre6.ebuild,v 1.3 2003/10/24 11:38:44 aliz Exp $ -IUSE="xmms encode oggvorbis" +IUSE="xmms encode oggvorbis zinf" MY_P=${P/_pre/-0.} @@ -28,7 +28,7 @@ encode?

Also eroaster isn't compatible with cdrecord version 2, which is what Gentoo uses. So eroaster is unable to burn many types of files under Gentoo. A user of eroaster submited a patch which I applied and now the program works for me under Gentoo. You can see the bug report at eroaster's site. https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=888653&group_id=12895&atid=112895
removed, i could find no reference to zinf in the source code (although it does a 'which zinf' on startup)
