Description MarkE 2005-08-09 02:50:32 UTC
gnubiff-2.1.3 fails during configure step due to missing fam dependancy

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge --unmerge fam
2. emerge gnubiff
Actual Results:  
emerge does as usual then crashes at:

checking for main in -lfam... no
configure: error:
        Cannot find fam (File Alteration Monitor) library
        Please consider installing it before installing gnubiff

Problem fixed with:
emerge fam
emerge gnubiff

Expected Results:  
gnubiff ebuild should have fam as a dependancy and fam should be automatically
emerged before gnubiff.
