Description Martin von Gagern 2005-02-22 06:56:44 UTC

In cracklib ebuilds there is an RDEPEND on portage. This causes many heavy runtime dependencies for simple pam-enabled programs.

I belibe it should be in DEPEND, not in RDEPEND.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -b rsync
2. ROOT=/some/empty/dir emerge -vpeK rsync

Actual Results:  
would emerges portage and all its dependencies

Expected Results:  
only emerge sensible runtime dependencies
