Description Dirk Salewski 2003-10-25 03:31:44 UTC
The sylpheed-claws-0.9.0-r1.ebuild checks for "gtkhtml" in USE and makes
building the dillo-html-viewer-plugin dependent on that. However, this is not
necessary, because the dillo-plugin builds fine without gtkhtml installed. It
forces people on very old machines to install half of gnome to get a small plugin.
Please find attached a proposition for an enhanced sylpheed-claws-0.9.0-ebuild.
This ebuild checks for the existence of /usr/bin/dillo instead of "gtkhtml".
Greetings, Dirk Salewski

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use the stable distribution.
2. Put "-gtkhtml" into Your USE-flags.
3. emerge dillo
4. emerge sylpheed-claws

Actual Results:  
sylpheed-claws works beautifully, however, the dillo-plugin is not built.

Expected Results:  
The ebuild should not check for "gtkhtml" in USE, but for the existence of
"dillo" on the machine.

This is my proposition for the new ebuild.
