Description Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2023-09-13 04:25:12 UTC
Noticed w/ `qa-vdb` from iwdevtools:
```
VDB: detected possibly incorrect RDEPEND (dev-libs/liblouis-3.25.0)
 > dev-libs/libyaml
```

This looks like a build system error, given https://github.com/liblouis/liblouis/blob/f92474354584727355543cacaffe76bf6ea38464/configure.ac#L29 implies it's supposed to be test-only.

    dev-libs/liblouis: add 3.29.0
    
    * Due to scripts installed with liblouis such as lou_maketable requiring
      python bindings it makes simpler to build python bindings
      unconditionally with a single python target.
    * Enable python3.12 and python3.13, use PEP517 (addresses egg-info bug).
    * Remove libyaml automagic.
    * Install lou_maketable script dir into libexec instead of bin. This differs
      from what other distributions do as Fedora and Debian remove these scripts,
      Arch has it unchanged.
