Reasons: > * mail-filter/libsieve has no reverse dependencies in the Gentoo tree. This one is not correct. net-mail/dbmail optionally depends on mail-filter/libsieve. (In reply to Brian Evans from comment #1) > net-mail/dbmail optionally depends on mail-filter/libsieve. Interesting. I used "equery d mail-filter/libsieve" and got no match. How did you find the reverse dependency?

Gentoo keeps records of this to quickly look: https://qa-reports.gentoo.org/output/genrdeps/rindex/mail-filter/libsieve Thanks, Brian. I will remember that for future checks. Would it be OK to assign this issue to lordvan@g.o as the maintainer of dbmail, to ask for his opinion? Perhaps he would consider becoming the libsieve maintainer, what with dbmail apparently being the only remaining "consumer"? (In reply to Ralph Seichter from comment #4) > Thanks, Brian.
