1 | Hi all, |
2 | |
3 | Can someone enlighten me: why DEPEND/RDEPEND on packages which are *always* |
4 | present on the system, and are even pre-built in build snapshots? For example |
5 | some ebuilds explicitly depend on virtual/glibc, what's the point in that? |
6 | Many ebuilds use things like flex bison etc. to compile. When creating |
7 | non-critical, non-system ebuilds which certainly won't be built before glibc |
8 | or the kernel - should I keep track of these things? |
