Description NRK 2023-05-28 12:43:09 UTC
The app-alternatives system allows user to pick alternative implementation (such as app-arch/pigz) and so packages should not depend on app-arch/gzip directly and instead should depend on app-alternatives/gzip.

Reproducible: Always

    sys-apps/kbd: depend on app-alternatives/gzip
    
    ...instead of directly depending on app-arch/gzip since users can select
    alternative implementations (such as pigz) through the app-alternatives
    system.
