14:12 +<PJ> hmm. this is odd. dep-clean is saying that 'app-arch/ncompress-4.2.4' is depended on but not present, but qpkg -q cant find any packages that need it. anyone run into this befoer? 14:12 +<PJ> the new portage, new iptables, and bsdsfv are all ive installed since my last dep-clean came back clean (i think) 14:18 +<PJ> im installing it just to be safe, but im curious whats going on 15:06 +<j2ee> PJ: 15:07 +<j2ee> find /usr/portage -name '*.ebuild' > /tmp/portage.list 15:07 +<j2ee> and then 15:07 +<j2ee> for ebuild in `cat /tmp/portage.list`; do [ ! -z `sed -n '/DEPEND.*[^"]$/,/"$/p ; /DEPEND.*"$/p' $ebuild | grep ncompress` ] && echo $ebuild; done 15:10 +<PJ> so far 15:10 +<PJ> /usr/portage/app-text/pstotext/pstotext-1.8g.ebuild 15:10 +<PJ> /usr/portage/sys-apps/tar/tar-1.13.25-r2.ebuild 15:10 +<PJ> and thats it 15:11 +<j2ee> k 15:12 +<PJ> so, if those two packages depend on it, why is it not showing up in qpkg -q? 15:13 +<j2ee> mmh 15:13 +<j2ee> do you have tar installed ? 15:14 +<PJ> sys-apps/tar, yes. 15:14 +<PJ> tar's part of system i believe. 15:14 +<j2ee> in fact: 15:14 +<j2ee> Ximian vpopmail # emerge -p tar 15:14 +<j2ee> These are the packages that I would merge, in order. 15:14 +<j2ee> Calculating dependencies ...done! 15:14 +<j2ee> [ebuild N ] app-arch/ncompress-4.2.4 to / 15:14 +<j2ee> [ebuild R ] sys-apps/tar-1.13.25-r2 to / 15:15 +<PJ> hmm 15:15 +<PJ> thats just odd. 15:15 +<PJ> something screwed up the tar ebuild perhasp? 15:16 +<j2ee> wait .. checking 15:17 +<j2ee> hehe 15:17 +<j2ee> http://www.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/gentoo-x86/sys-apps/tar/ChangeLog.diff?r1=1.3&r2=1.4 <snip> *tar-1.13.19-r1.ebuild (14 July 2002) 16 Aug 2002; Seemant Kulleen <seemant@gentoo.org> tar-1.13.25-r2.ebuild : Added gzip, bzip2 and ncompress to DEPEND list.

This is a qpkg bug; assigning to karltk
Here's more work coming your way, Dave :) Any chance you can get any of this fixed by the end of the weekend ?
Dep-clean has been decomissioned and i don't hear any barking so i'm closing all dep-clean related bugs. yell if you want it back!
