Description Gabor Garami 2010-07-08 20:35:49 UTC

Add media-fonts/dejavu to net-analyzer/rrdtool as RDEPEND, because this font is a default of RRDtool, and all generated graphs has a unreadable text ("squares").

Steps to reproduce:
1. Ensure media-fonts/dejavu is not installed on system
2. emerge rrdtool
3. Generate graph on some way
4. The result will unreadable

It is expected for users to read the elog messages.

%% ebuild /usr/portage/net-analyzer/rrdtool/rrdtool-1.3.8.ebuild postinst clean
<snip>
 * Note: rrdtool-1.3.x doesn't have any default font bundled. Thus if you've
 * upgraded from rrdtool-1.2.x and don't have any font installed to make
 * lables visible, please, install some font, e.g. media-fonts/dejavu.
