Description Leander 2004-05-31 08:51:16 UTC
Installing xcdroast on a new system made me realize there's an old dependency which doesn't seem to be of any use: giflib. I removed its line in the ebuild and xcdroast compiled (and works) fine.

I first thought it was because I compiled against gtk2, but when I disable the gtk2 USE flag, giflib is proposed as an indirect dependency (gdk-pixbuf -> gnome-libs -> imlib -> giflib). So is there any need for that library yet?

Reproducible: Always

You are right.  I verified the needed tools and their dependcies.  The list is now corrected so that GTK+ won't be installed when you chosed GTK2+.

Thanks for pointing that out!
