Bug 54323 – net-irc/irssi is missing dev-libs/glib in RDEPEND

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Eric Brown 2004-06-18 08:33:28 UTC]

I am using a central rsync/binhost, and on one of the boxes I want irssi.  So i do emerge -pv irssi, and i see like 10 deps (all N), then irssi at the bottom (normal).. I check emerge -gkpv irssi and i only see irssi itself.  If i actually emerge irssi -gk, it will not work because one of those deps is glib, which is not installed with -gk.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge -gk irssi
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
it emerges the irssi tarball, but none of the deps that should be emerged

Expected Results:  
it should have emerged deps like glib and irssi

the BINHOST and all related machines are using the same USE flags (if that even
matters)

i checked emerge -gkpvdD irssi and got this:

Fetching binary packages info...

That Depstring looks like it's only coming from RDEPEND instead of DEPEND.  in the irssi-0.8.9 ebuild, we have the following:

DEPEND="!net-irc/irssi-cvs
    >=dev-libs/glib-2.2.1
    sys-libs/ncurses
    >=sys-apps/sed-4
    ssl? ( dev-libs/openssl )
    perl? ( dev-lang/perl )
    socks5? ( >=net-misc/dante-1.1.13 )"
                                                                                                 
RDEPEND="nls? ( sys-devel/gettext )
    sys-libs/ncurses
    ssl? ( dev-libs/openssl )
    perl? ( dev-lang/perl )
    socks5? ( >=net-misc/dante-1.1.13 )"


So... I'm not sure exactly why emerge -gk would only check RDEPEND, but it really looks like a bug to me.

Sorry portage guys, I should first have read comment 2.

RDEPEND are run-time dependencies, if you're using binary packages only these
packages will be installed. net-irc/irssi is missing dev-libs/glib in RDEPEND.

I'm going to fix this.

Fixed in CVS.
