RDEPEND has dev-libs/glib[utils] utils was added by bug 485142, but this was probably an error because the reason it works is that it pulls in dev-util/gdbus-codegen? Working fine for me without USE="utils" for dev-libs/glib, although I'm only really using alsa and flac plugins.
Created attachment 503654 [details] Ebuild for media-plugins/audacious-3.9 without dev-libs/glib[utils] dependency Grepping through the audacious-plugins unpacked source shows no occurrences of "gtester" at all, let alone gtester-report. As such, it does seem like gdbus-codegen is what is actually wanted, and this seems to already be listed as a build-time dependency in the DEPEND variable. In previous versions, this was listed in RDEPEND as a run-time dependency: > ( || ( >=dev-libs/glib-2.32.2[utils] dev-util/gdbus-codegen ) ) This was correctly pointed out in bug #590008 as being incorrect as gdbus-codegen was only ever used at build time, and the gdbus-codegen dependency was thus moved to the DEPEND variable for the 3.9 ebuild. My guess is that when this happened, the dependency on glib was left in RDEPEND incorrectly (and I believe it should never have been there in the first place; even dev-libs/glib-2.32.4-r1 - the earliest version I still have an ebuild file hanging around for - had the gdbus-codegen dependency for "utils"). I've made a local ebuild without this dependency and so far everything appears to be working correctly. I've attached the ebuild I'm using. Note that this change will need to be made to audacious-plugins-9999.ebuild as well.
Created attachment 503656 [details] Ebuild for media-plugins/audacious-3.9 without dev-libs/glib[utils] dependency My apologies; it *does* require dev-libs/glib, but doesn't require the "utils" USE flag. Here's the correct ebuild.
