Description Seemant Kulleen 2002-02-18 08:55:52 UTC
Hi,

I notice, when doing, an `emerge --pretend --world update` that it squawks about
gtk-perl. So, looking at the ebuild file, I find something interesting:

DEPEND="sys-devel/perl
        =dev-perl/gtk-perl-${PV}
        dev-util/glade"

That seems to show that a runtime dependency of gtk-perl is, in fact, gtk-perl.
 Seems slighly odd to me, and it may not be a bug, but I thought I'd report it
again.  And now, I will stop bombarding you all with these bugs.
