Bug 527764 – media-sound/timidity++ should only use RDEPEND for SELinux policy package dependency

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE

[Description Sven Vermeulen (RETIRED) 2014-11-01 10:51:26 UTC]

Please remove the "selinux? ( sec-policy/selinux-* )" dependency in the DEPEND variable (not RDEPEND). Take this into account with your next package bump - if after 6 months there have been no need for other package upgrades, we will be bumping the package(s) ourselves with just this change.

For more information, see our tracker Bug #527698 [1]. The requested change will be posted as a separate comment/patch. Note that if the package also depends on libselinux, libselinux itself should still remain in DEPEND and RDEPEND.

Reproducible: Always

After checking with a few colleague developers it seems that this change does not need a revision bump after all. As such, I will make the necessary changes to the packages myself.

My apologies for the noise.
