Commits c9eafaaba5772ce80c13483819db017c9cb4b718 and 332e3526ec6cd0b27314a9616c6a603de82cf81a changed the respective user/group dependencies from BDEPEND to DEPEND. On an existing installations which pulled these user/group packages in as dependency of the main package, the user/groups will now be depcleaned. New installations will no longer pull them in to begin with. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. newly install alertmanager or blackbox_exporter 2. missing user/group Actual Results: Missing user/group package on new install or depcleaned from existing installation.
These shouldn't be in BDEPEND (RDEPEND+DEPEND or RDEPEND-only to, in theory, not use the build machine's user/groups), but: DEPEND=" acct-group/blackbox_exporter acct-user/blackbox_exporter " DEPEND="dev-util/promu" It's defining DEPEND twice and the second one overrides it losing the dependency entirely. Also, I'm pretty sure this should be RDEPEND+DEPEND here, I see user/group both in the ebuild and init scripts. CC'ing commit author (normally prefer 1 bug per package but the issue is identical).
thanks, fixed.
Don’t we need RDEPEND too?
