patch to add app-arch/rar and app-arch/zip to RDEPEND
What if I don't want rar and zip support? you add USE-flags: IUSE="zip rar" RDEPEND="${RDEPEND} zip? ( app-arch/zip ) rar? ( app-arch/rar )" Yeah. However, my point is that it seems complex to add a bunch of use flags for RDEPENDs that are easily satisfied by just emerging the actual application. Now, if they were compile time DEPENDs I would understand, but it's a quick and easy fix to add {zip,rar,gzip,bzip2} support. I'm not sure that the addition of use flags and RDEPENDs gains us much. Gah... Just stick some elog info in postinst and be done with it. Adding deps that don't affect the result in any way is not what use flags are for. I concur that adding these optional runtime dependencies plus defining extra local use flags, is a bit too much. While I don't mind adding einfo, I'd even say it's too unimportant for elog, isn't it?! added elog line to kde-3.5.4 *** Bug 169084 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
