Description Jan Buecken 2012-05-01 16:21:09 UTC
Install picasa with nsplugin and use firefox-bin usually. Then you must have firefox installed additionally. Isn't it possible to change the picasa ebuild to something like

-nspulgin? ( >=www-client/firefox-3.0.0 )
+nspulgin? ( >=www-client/firefox-3.0.0 || >=www-client/firefox-bin-3.0.0)

?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use firefox-bin
2. Install picasa with nsplugin use flag
3. firefox AND firefox-bin will be installed at the same time due to dependencies

Only because it should be added every time for a bug report.

Ok it is more like:
+nsplugin? ( || ( 
+                 >=www-client/firefox-3.0.0
+                 >=www-client/firefox-bin-3.0.0
+               )
+          )

nsplugin - Build plugin for browsers supporting the Netscape plugin architecture (that is almost any modern browser)

I don't see at all why the RDEPEND is needed. It should work equally fine in Opera or Chromium. Just remove it entirely?

Package removed, see bug #434390.
