Subject: [gentoo-project] ABI deps and DEPEND labelling
Date: Tue, 19 Aug 2008 20:38:28

1 Posting to project as I think this stuff needs input from users as well as
2 devs. (Many users have a lot of experience with embedded dev and ABI
3 quirks.)
4 Flameeyes posted here about ABI deps:

6 ..which reminded me a lot of:

9 Not really fussed about how it's resolved, so long as we get some sort of
10 correct link dependency information (which compile-against is not.) OFC
11 that probably means we'll never get correct LDEPENDs but such is life ;)

13 What do others reckon about resolving ABI stuff, especially for cross-dev
14 and multi-lib/testing?
