Description Justin Jones 2002-10-18 04:28:40 UTC
galeon-cvs does *not* depend on >=gnome-2.0.0, it can be compiled with
>=gtk+-2.0.0 and some other dependencies.

Not everyone who uses galeon wants to use gnome...

amen.
Comment 2 foser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-10-18 06:33:52 UTC
galeon-cvs is a masked script and most likely will stay that. Galeon depends on
our gnome package because a lot of the libs needed by galeon are mentioned in
there (libgnome,gconf,gnome-vfs, etc.).

As far as i'm concerned you have to take this ebuild as-is and if you want it
changed for personal use, do so in your local copy.

But it's spiders so i'll pass it on anyway.
Comment 3 Spider (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-10-18 14:28:02 UTC
Sorry, but it will stay dependant on >= gnome for now, mainly because galeon-cvs
aims to interoperate into the gnome 2.2 desktop, that means it will use Gnome
mime types, Gconf and gnome settings for proxy and other things.   it is also
slowly becoming completely bonoboized in the interface with dynamic menu
additions, see the recent weeks threads and flames on galeon-devel list

If you choose to use the -cvs build, you are brave neough to use --nodeps and
see. I dont consider the effort worth it to keep up-to-date with moz gtk2 and
galeoncvs to track the dependencies as they are changed .
