Description Dennis Schridde 2020-08-22 20:14:25 UTC 
dev-util/xxdi is a lightweight alternative to app-editors/vim-core.  dev-libs/rocr-runtime-3.7.0 should probably depend on either one.
Comment 1 Craig Andrews gentoo-dev 2020-08-23 20:40:07 UTC 
If you want to submit a PR to conditionally use dev-util/xxdi instead of app-editors/vim-core, I'd consider it.

Comment 3 Craig Andrews gentoo-dev 2020-08-30 20:24:54 UTC 
According to the script in rocr-runtime only "xxd" will be used.

Unless we patch it, rocr-runtime won't use xxd.pl from dev-util/xxdi. Since dev-util/xxdi isn't a drop in replacement, I'm not doing to make the change suggested here.

However, if you want to do so and provide the a PR, please go ahead and I'll absolutely consider merging it.

Thank you!
