Description mikolaj.bugzilla 2013-01-02 16:55:09 UTC

djview-4.9.ebuild requires x11-libs/qt-gui:4[dbus] despite the fact 
that dbus not is not mentioned anywhere in requirements of djview.
In fact, it can be run without dbus installed. Proposed patch removes the dbus flag.


Reproducible: Always

So the issue in bug 420907 does not apply?

I can only present empirical evidence:

Simply put, djview-4.9 works and compiles without dbus installed.

Comment 4 mikolaj.bugzilla 2013-01-02 17:19:22 UTC

Of course I have qt-gui compiled without dbus use flag.

Did you compile qt-gui with the ebuild that contained this fix (http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/x11-libs/qt-gui/qt-gui-4.8.4.ebuild?r1=1.10&r2=1.11) ?

Comment 6 mikolaj.bugzilla 2013-01-02 22:12:16 UTC

Earlier I had ebuild rev 1.
I have downloaded rev 11 and successfully compiled qt-gui-4.8.4 and then djview-4.9 without any issues.

These versions are long gone.
