Description Adam Byrtek 2004-06-26 09:56:43 UTC
Despite I've unset the 'gnome' USE flag (with 'gtk2' set of course) straw (0.19.2) still wants to merge its GNOME dependencies. It would be great if straw could merge without GNOME support.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -pv straw
Actual Results:  
Straw wants to merge 17mb of GNOME deps, including Nautilus.

Expected Results:  
Straw without GNOME dependencies.
Comment 1 Joe McCann (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-27 22:02:20 UTC
straw doesn't have a gnome useflag, nor does it have optional gnome support. 
It is a gnome application that uses gnome-python bindings.
Comment 2 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-28 07:26:17 UTC
gnome support is required because straw depends on gnome-python.
