What about packages such as bzip2, xz-utils, or really, app-arch/*? |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Also, on a related note, would it be appropriate to report the following |
| 20 |
undeclared deps, given that the package in question already has DEPEND for |
| 21 |
gtk+? |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
* Checking app-arch/guitar-0.1.4 for undeclared dependencies |
| 24 |
* /usr/bin/guitar links to /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6 |
| 25 |
* Missing dependency on x11-libs/libX11 |
| 26 |
* /usr/bin/guitar links to /usr/lib64/libXi.so.6 |
| 27 |
* Missing dependency on x11-libs/libXi |
| 28 |
* /usr/bin/guitar links to /usr/lib64/libXext.so.6 |
| 29 |
* Missing dependency on x11-libs/libXext |

* /usr/bin/guitar links to /usr/lib64/libxcb.so.1 |
| 31 |
* Missing dependency on x11-libs/libxcb |
| 32 |
* /usr/bin/guitar links to /usr/lib64/libXau.so.6 |
