Description John Turner 2024-02-15 20:24:41 UTC
In version 34, flycheck has removed the dependency on pkg-info and replaced its functionality with a built in function. 

A quick run of "equery depends --indirect --all pkg-info" shows that the only packages that rely on pkg-info are flycheck itself and things that depend on flycheck! I think it may be possible to drop pkg-info from the gentoo repo completely.

Reproducible: Always
