The 6.7 ebuild uses EAPI 7 without defining BDEPEND. That causes it to install ROOT=/ dependencies in the sysroot unnecessarily. In this case, Perl and gettext seem to only be used from / (but Perl is also a runtime dependency for the installed scripts). Reproducible: Always I tried building the following change in a sysroot which seems to work. This dropped old blockers and minimum versions that have been removed from the tree so it looks cleaner and consistent with other packages' BDEPENDs. It also dropped xz-utils since I didn't see where it's used, and it's in the base package set anyway. --- sys-apps/texinfo/texinfo-6.7.ebuild +++ sys-apps/texinfo/texinfo-6.7.ebuild @@ -19,8 +19,6 @@ IUSE="nls +standalone static" RDEPEND=" - !=app-text/tetex-2* - >=sys-libs/ncurses-5.2-r2:0= standalone?
