Description Georgi Georgiev 2013-10-08 14:34:39 UTC 
Installing dev-libs/DirectFB will automatically link against libsysfs. I noticed this after cleaning up some packages and sysfsutils got uninstalled as a packaged that was not required anymore. DirectFB was linked against it.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install sys-fs/sysfsutils
2. install dev-libs/DirectFB
3. uninstall sys-fs/sysfsutils
4. Run "cave fix-linkage" (I am guessing revdep-rebuild would do the same)

Actual Results:  
/usr/lib64/directfb-1.4-5/systems/libdirectfb_fbdev.so is broken

$ sudo cave fix-linkage
Searching: 19 directories, 87544 files


* dev-libs/DirectFB-1.4.9-r1::installed
    /usr/lib64/directfb-1.4-5/systems/libdirectfb_fbdev.so (requires libsysfs.so.2)
Done: 1782 steps


Expected Results:  
Nothing is broken.
