Bug 49691 – Missing dependency in app-crypt/seahorse-0.7.3 (needs 'eel')

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jens Mayer 2004-05-02 04:06:03 UTC]

Trying to emerge the latest ~x86 version of app-crypt/seahorse, ./configure fails when checking dependencies:

---8<------------------------
Using config source xml::/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults for schema installation
Using $(sysconfdir)/gconf/schemas/ as install directory for schema files

Perhaps you should add the directory containing `eel-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'eel-2.0' found

After emerging gnome-base/eel, seahorse compiles smoothly.

brad : 1st of all you touched a gnome herd pack without notifying us against all policy. Second, 0.7 series is a development release and shouldn't have been added. 3rd, you obviously didn't check deps.

I would prefer -as maintaining herd of this package- that you removed this version.

[Comment 2 Brad Laue (RETIRED) 2004-05-04 22:49:35 UTC]

Version pulled - development versions don't go into portage posing as stable ones.
