Description Markus Luisser 2005-07-05 01:22:21 UTC
I recently changed to the new split kde ebuilds. On a deep-world update the kst-1.1.0 ebuild tries to pull in kde-meta. I dont know how this should be handled properly with the split ebuilds especially since kst belongs to the kde-extragear (or scientific) family for which I couldnt find a meta-ebuild.

These are the packages that I would merge, in reverse order:

Calculating world dependencies ...done!

right, see media-gfx/kst/ChangeLog:

But from what I can see there is at least no compile time dependency on any part
of kde-base/kdebase. Furthermore a lot of optional dependencies is not dealt with:

  --with-piolib=DIR       where the root of PIOLib is installed
  --with-transfunc=DIR    where the root of libtransfunc is installed
  --with-cdf=DIR          where the root of CDF is installed
  --with-netcdf=DIR       where the root of NetCDF is installed
  --with-kst-scripting    compile unfinished scripting extension
  --with-kst-timers       compile in timing information

Would be nice if sci@ could deal with this, presumably they actually use kst  
(I never have) and can tell what deps are needed...
