Description Benoit Boissinot 2004-08-31 12:56:53 UTC 
yodl isn't a dependency for rxvt-unicode (at least for rxvt-unicode-3.9).

Moreover the yodl homepage (http://www.xs4all.nl/~jantien/yodl/ ) indicates that yodl is unmaintened and discontinued since 1999. Since yodl was only needed for rxvt-unicode, maybe it could be removed when 3.9 goes stable.

Looks like they're using pod instead of yodl now, so the dep needs to be switched to perl...

Zsh still uses yodl, so we are not going to remove it.

Okay, fixed the deps for the two versions that were in portage, and bumped to 4.0 (with the fixed dep). Thanks for the info.
