Description Rene Luria 2003-08-29 04:15:07 UTC
All bluez-* ebuilds depend on bluez-kernel ebuild. 
But, at least since vanilla-sources-2.4.22, this is not required anymore, as 
the bluez stack has been fully merged to kernel tree. 
Then, depending on kernel version, bluez-kernel dep has to be removed. 
Otherwise, one must manualy emerge inject this ebuild.

i suspect that all that we probably don't need to dep bluez-kernel to soon. maybe we should make a virtual for this.
Comment 2 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-10-11 19:03:14 UTC
well, for the moment all the kernel deps have been removed. fix some compile
issues with bluez-bluefw with 2.6 kernel. 

so this is pretty much resolved for now. i'll take it up with other devs
about whether we should put a virtual/bluez to see whether it is worth it.
thanks for your report.
