Bug 58771 – xplanet-1.1.1.ebuild causes portage traceback because of typo in the ebuild

• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Alex 2004-07-29 05:10:40 UTC]

RDEPEND list in the current xplanet ebuild contains an error which causes a portage traceback when trying emerge -upD world or emerge -upD xplanet.

ebuild is:

RDEPEND="X? (virtual/x11 ) 
    opengl? ( virtual/opengl
        media-libs/glut )
    gif? ( media-libs/giflib
        media-libs/libungif )
    jpeg? ( media-libs/jpeg )
    tiff? ( media-libs/tiff )
    png? ( media-libs/libpng )
    truetype? ( =media-libs/freetype-2* )"

should be:

RDEPEND="X? ( virtual/x11 ) 
    opengl? ( virtual/opengl
        media-libs/glut )
    gif? ( media-libs/giflib
        media-libs/libungif )
    jpeg? ( media-libs/jpeg )
    tiff? ( media-libs/tiff )
    png? ( media-libs/libpng )
    truetype? ( =media-libs/freetype-2* )"

Add a space right before 'virtual'
RDEPEND="X? ( virtual/x11 )

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Small typo in xplanet-1.1.1

portage version, and the traceback?
Aside from the rdepend being wrong, I'm mostly curious about the traceback.

[Comment 2 Alex 2004-07-29 05:20:22 UTC]

Sorry it's my firt bug report ;)

OK - portage-2.0.50-r9

emerge -upD xplanet

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies \
!!! Problem in x11-misc/xplanet dependencies.
!!! iteration over non-sequence

or with debug

emerge -upD --debug xplanet

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Rizzo,
I've corrected the typo- it was minor, didn't figure there would be an issue.
Meanwhile, sending it to dev-portage since I'd like to see this traceback (not getting it locally).

Ah sorry 'bout that.  Thanks for taking care of it.

I can't duplicate this directly in code either.
