Description Johan Hovold 2010-12-04 17:13:30 UTC

xautolock pulls in xlockmore even though slock (or alock) is installed.

xautolock currently RDEPEND xlockmore or xtrlock. There are however at least two other xlockers available in portage namely alock and slock. Either these two should be added to the RDEPEND or, preferably, the RDEPEND should be dropped completly as xautolock can be used to trigger _any_ application after a period of user inactivity.

Adding a new virtual xlocker has also been suggested elsewhere.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -C xlockmore xtrlock
2. emerge slock
3. emerge -va xautolock

Actual Results:  
Emerging xautolock pulls in xlockmore.

Expected Results:  
Only xautolock should be installed.

I'm sure I've seen a similar bug report before, about xscreensaver/xlockmore. Can't find it now, though. Maybe it's time for a virtual/x11-lock or something?

Comment 2 Klaus Kusche 2011-08-06 09:47:51 UTC

See bug 377965: Please also add i3lock to RDEPEND.

How many takers would this virtual have (except [1])?

That and possible the reverse dependencies of slock

xfce-base/xfce-utils-4.8.1:lock

That's the case now but in the future maybe there will be more. In any case the overhead for a new virtual is minimum

x11-misc/xtrlock is another candidate?
