• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Joerg Schaible 2011-10-25 21:07:23 UTC]

The ebuild of xorg-server-1.9.5-r1 fails to declare a build dependency to docbook-xml-dtd:4.3. The build fails if the package is not installed.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Unmerge docbook-xml-dtd:4.3 if it is installed
2. Emerge xorg-server-1.9.5-r1
Actual Results:  
Build fails generating the man pages.

Expected Results:  
docbook-xml-dtd:4.3 should have been installed first to build xorg-sewrver 1.9.5-r1 successfully.

xorg-2.eclass has

DOC_DEPEND="
    doc? (
        app-text/asciidoc
        app-text/xmlto
        app-doc/doxygen
        app-text/docbook-xml-dtd:4.1.2
        app-text/docbook-xml-dtd:4.2
        app-text/docbook-xml-dtd:4.3
    )
"

and xorg-server has

XORG_DOC=doc

so this was fixed at some point.
