Description Marko Djukic 2003-08-09 10:02:04 UTC

When trying to emerge xfree-drm as per the instructions in the install guide and
doing a no-network install, it fails because it tries to fetch cabextract from
the network.

I don't think this is something for the docs-team, but more something for the LiveCD peeps. However, due to the big amount of GRP problems, I'll keep this here untill I'm definately sure its for the LiveCD people (don't want to get into a fight with them :)

Well, when I tried installing from the grp this weekend, cabextract was indeed missing from the grp, but needed.

Indeed. I have a listing of the CD-1 and CD-2 and cabextract is not in them. Assigning to livewire. This is no documentation bug.

x11-drm no longer depends on cabextract
