Description jieryn 2007-04-13 12:36:32 UTC
From 1.5.15-r1:

DEPEND="${RDEPEND}
        net-mail/mailbase
        !vanilla? (
                dev-libs/libxml2
                dev-libs/libxslt
                app-text/docbook-xsl-stylesheets
                || ( www-client/lynx www-client/w3m )
        )"

Gentoo has closed bug 174366 to add www-client/elinks into the choices for the final conditional to the RDEPEND, so please add a USE="doc" functionality so that I don't have to install lynx or w3m.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 jieryn 2007-04-13 12:39:08 UTC
And before this bug is closed as INVALID simply because I did not specify that the whole of !vanilla? case would be included for USE="doc", in the same spirit as bug 174366, let me restate:

Please add USE="doc" and include all required packages for such behavior inside its check. If more packages than || (lynx w3m) would be excluded by setting USE="-doc" then also remove them..

Please stop refilling the same bug under various summaries.

Those programs are needed to build the documentation, said documentation HAS to be built if patches are applied.

It is not like w3m or lynx are such big packages for a machine that wants to run mutt with additional patches...
