Description nzqr 2012-03-18 21:40:43 UTC

qdepends -r xmms2 shows:
media-sound/xmms2-0.8-r1: >=dev-db/sqlite-3.3.4 media-libs/alsa-lib media-libs/flac media-sound/mac media-sound/madplay >=dev-libs/glib-2.12.9 >=app-admin/eselect-python-20091230

This is strange to have dependebncy on madplay, because grepping xmms's soureces didn't show any use of madplay or abxtest. It should rather RDEPEND on libmad, because:

objdump -x /usr/lib64/xmms2/libxmms_mad.so |grep ' NEE'
  NEEDED               libglib-2.0.so.0
  NEEDED               libmad.so.0
  NEEDED               libm.so.6
  NEEDED               libc.so.6

And, why it RDEPENDs on app-admin/eselect-python? xmms2 is built with -python, and i didn't found any python scripts in package.

Reproducible: Always

Pushed 'libmad' fix as:

As for the 'eselect-python' depend it's a yet unsolved 'python.eclass'
problem being tracked as bug #341037

Today Luca started discussion about it so there is chances the bug
will be solved soonish in a generic way:

Thanks for the detailed report!
