Description Alan Pastor 2008-02-04 21:03:48 UTC
While tinkering around with the web applications available in portage I found that gnopaste depends on apache, but I edited the ebuild myself to not use apache and have found it installs and works fine with lighttpd as well. I'm really not that savvy with writing ebuilds yet so I figured I'd suggest it here. From what I do know about ebuilds I think the apache dependency needs to be changed to a virtual/http dependency though! I noticed it had an option in the config file or the setup to use mod_rewrite or not, maybe that's why it's assumed that it depends on apache.

Reproducible: Always

No, it doesn't depend on apache, read the ebuild.
Comment 2 Alan Pastor 2008-02-05 00:50:28 UTC
I'm sorry, but as of February 3rd, 10:15am, the sync I did before that did not reflect the ebuild I have right now

the old one used 

RDEPEND="virtual/mysql
        dev-lang/php"
 
with apache in the middle and the new one is fixed to

RDEPEND="virtual/httpd-cgi
        dev-lang/php"

So I suppose I reported this a day too late. I'm sorry! I'm rather new to this.

Yeah as said, no such dependency any more, closing. ;)
