Bug 69537 – libxfcegui4 4.1.90 missing dep for dbh.

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description whitehawk 2004-10-30 13:11:16 UTC]

I installed xfce4-4.1.90. The problem is that libxfcegui4 should depend to dbh. It is not that way. This causes xffm to crash while starting. xffm depends on dbh, but if xfce4 is emerged then dbh is emerged later then libxfcegui4. So it is required to remerge libxfcegui4. The everything is fine. Or dbh should be emerged then xfce4. This could be solved by adding this line to the ebuild in DEPEND= : >=dev-libs/dbh-1.0.20 This actually is important for xffm I think. So it could be optional.:

IUSE="dbh"
DEPEND="dbh? ( >=dev-libs/dbh-1.0.20 )
....
...."

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.install xfce4 without installing dbh before it.
2.try to run xffm

Actual Results:  
xffm did not start. (sorry but I haven't got the actual error message)

Expected Results:  
It should have started..
