Description i.Dark_Templar 2024-12-05 19:57:00 UTC

When I've tried to update qt-creator to version 15.0.0 it suddenly started pulling golang as dependency for an optional feature I don't need.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -1av '>=dev-qt/qt-creator-15.0.0'

Actual Results:  
It pulls dev-lang/go as mandatory dependency.

Expected Results:  
It shouldn't pull dev-lang/go as mandatory dependency.

It looks like golang is used only for stuff named gocmdbridge server, and this gocmdbridge server is optional:

https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt-creator/qt-creator.git/tree/src/libs/gocmdbridge/server/CMakeLists.txt?h=v15.0.0&id=3ac6a5956df4f4a47ac241cb33d617c76ac507e2#n44

To remove automatic detection of golang this whole directory 'src/libs/gocmdbridge/server' may also be disabled.

    dev-qt/qt-creator: make Go optional w/ USE=cmdbridge-server
    
    Off by default given most people won't need this, arguably could've
    skipped it entirely to make maintenance easier.
    
    Does require to fool it into thinking Go was not found given there
    isn't a proper option to disable it that I can see.
