lyx-1.2.3 depends on media-libs/xpm
but this dependency isnt in the ebuild file...

Comment 1 Dan Armak (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-01-25 16:01:21 UTC
Why do you say that? AFAICS it only needs libXpm which is part of xfree. Maybe I'm mixing the 
two? 
Comment 2 Felix Kurth 2003-01-27 07:51:34 UTC
qpkg -f /usr/X11R6/lib/libXpm.so.4 
shows 
: 
media-libs/xpm * 
x11-base/xfree * 
 
then  
emerge -C xpm      (version 3.4k-1) 
and libXpm.so.4*  
is gone, lyx is broken. 
Maybe a problem with portage ?!? 
Why does both  packages provide the same file ? 
 
 
 
Comment 3 Dan Armak (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-01-28 14:07:09 UTC
Indeed, this shouldn't be so. A search finds bug #1446, but for some reason the xpm wasn't 
removed or fixed or at least masked. I've reopened that bug with appropriate comments. 
Comment 4 Dan Armak (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-04-01 15:43:04 UTC
No point in keeping this open separately from that...
