perhaps this thread should be brought up on the gentoo-dev mailing list ... especially since this behavior is the exact opposite of what we've been yelling at developers for doing in the past i think the implicit setting of RDEPEND to DEPEND is much more common than implicitly setting RDEPEND to "" I mailed -dev about this tonight, so hopefully something will come of it. Can we put "Discussion" as a blocker? :) Please upgrade the Dev Guide @ http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/devrel/handbook/handbook.xml?part=2&chap=1#doc_chap5 You will see it tells people that RDEPEND=${DEPEND} is automatic. Closing this until there is an authorative decision if this really is desirable. |
