Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

Your package is runtime-depending on sys-devel/bison standing to http://tinderbox.dev.gentoo.org/misc/rindex/sys-devel/bison . sys-devel/bison is a tool used almost always at build-time, (it's either a build system or a generator - sorry this is a generic template I start with so I can't tell you right away which one). This means that it should only be depended at build-time.

Please correct your ebuild or document why it is used as a runtime-dependency so that it will not be suspected again.

Thanks,
Diego

  07 May 2010; Jeroen Roovers <jer@gentoo.org> libmimedir-0.3.ebuild,
  libmimedir-0.4.ebuild:
  Set RDEPEND explicitly so sys-devel/{flex,bison} are not in DEPEND (bug
  #221323).
