Description Caleb Tennis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-06-06 14:12:46 UTC
Packages split from kdebindings don't need to be tied to the same kdelibs as 
their version.  For example, kde-base/smoke only needs kdelibs 3.1 or greater 
(meaning that the build that depend on it need the same as well). 
 
KM_DEPRANGE only accepts a minver in the same minor version number. 
 
So, we'll either need to modify kde-functions.eclass to take it into account, 
perhaps consider making KDEBINDINGS a non KDEBASE setup, or do some manual 
hand tweaks to the split ebuilds. 
 
Thoughts? 

Reproducible: Always

Hey Dan, what are you thoughts on this? 
Comment 2 Dan Armak (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-06-29 14:24:01 UTC
It's easy enough to add a flag for using kde-meta.eclass without the 
split-ebuild-style deps. The question is what deps we want precisely. Is there 
uptodate documentation on what kdelibs versions each bindings package needs?

Old bug, no one cared a while... I for one think it is not friendly to let our users allow to mix packages of different KDE versions, let them file bugs upstream and see kde.org devs getting grey hairs. ;) In half a year there's only KDE 3.5 left anyways, so I hope you're fine with it, that I resolve as won't, Caleb.
