Description Michał Górny archtester

This package has the following RDEP specified:

  sys-devel/llvm

However, given the slotted nature of LLVM in Gentoo and the fact that it is a prebuilt binary package, I seriously doubt it actually requires files installed by our LLVM package. Please check if the dep is really meaningful.

I checked and now it is not depending on anything from llvm.

The only dependency I have found is on

libclang.so

I will omit llvm from the dependency and only leave clang

I think it uses the one it bundles anyway:

gnat-gpl-2016-x86_64-linux-bin/lib/gps/libclang.so

I removed the bundled libclang.so and used the one in the system.

The bundled one is supposed to be built with the llvm 3.5.2 source tree, so I guess I should depend on the slot 0 of sys-devel/clang.

But actually gps-bin run here even with slot 4 of clang, even if I am not sure it exercise the functionality that are on that library.

And more over, I have added dev-ada/gps-2017 on the tree, that build fine.

So gps-bin is going to die; I would like to leave dev-ada/gps-bin-2016 on the tree for some more time, without stabilizing, and then drop
