Bug 206078 – Enhanced app-arch/file-roller dependencies

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Nguyen Thai Ngoc Duy (RETIRED) 2008-01-16 12:29:19 UTC]

The following patch add additional PDEPENDs to app-arch/file-roller-2.21.1. For some file types such as iso and jar, it is difficult to know what package is needed, so let's document it in ebuild.

For the record, I don't know what package "ar" belongs to. binutils?

Can you *please* move it to (already existing) pkg_postinst() elog stuff? This is an abuse of USE flags plus a nightmare wrt keywording; already debated once in Bug 144627.

this is indeed an abuse of use flags but I don't want to list a kiloton of packages like say the git ebuild. It is already said in the current ebuild to check the website, if somebody as a brilliant idea, I'd be glad to hear about it but otherwise, this is a wontfix for me.

Well I thought some deps were not really obvious (iso for example). Will make it pkg_postinst if you guys agree (and no fileroller.sf.net does not have any information about this).

[Comment 6 Rémi Cardona (RETIRED) 2008-01-18 11:16:09 UTC]

Fixed in CVS. I added a few elog comments, leaving out the obvious ones, like tar, gz and bz2 that everyone should already have as part of the base system.

Changes also propagated to the overlay for 2.21.1

Thanks
