mkdosfs is used only on ia64, and catalyst has a dependency "ia64? ( sys-fs/dosfstools )" which has been in place since 2006. I'm not sure why you hit this problem. Catalyst's dependencies seem correct. It looks like the scope of the bug has been changed to the more generic "we should do run-time checks" for dependency programs, so I suppose this bug should be left open?

No, this bug should be closed because things are already depped properly. Users installing with --nodeps should be executed and their bugs closed as invalid. Like this. |
