Description Michal Januszewski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-08-12 04:13:45 UTC
Currently, evolution-data-server has www-client/mozilla in its DEPEND variable.
This forces the installation of www-client/mozilla even though the user might
already have www-client/mozilla-bin installed on their system. I think the
dependency should be changed to: 
  mozilla? ( || ( www-client/mozilla www-client/mozilla-bin ) )
Comment 1 Leonardo Boshell (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-08-12 04:22:04 UTC
It depends on the source version since it requires the relevant header files and
libraries for compilation. People with mozilla-bin installed should emerge
evolution-data-server with USE="-mozilla" so only the individual nps/nss
libraries are pulled as dependencies.
