As suggested by SpanKY in the bug report itself but never done until now |
| 5 |
I'll gladly start up the discussion. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
The bug report[1] is a request from the embedded team to change how |
| 8 |
DEPEND and REDEPEND are assigned in an ebuild. At present the |
| 9 |
documentation[2] states that RDEPEND if not specified will be set to |
| 10 |
DEPEND. Apparently the embedded team has issue with that, mostly that |
| 11 |
it pollutes exactly what RDEPEND is there for, making their ROOT much |
| 12 |
larger than it has to be. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
The actual fix to the bug is a minor one, a small check to Repoman to |
| 15 |
make sure ebuilds have both DEPEND and RDEPEND set; and to warn if they |
| 16 |
are not set. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
However the use of DEPEND and RDEPEND in the manner that they are |
| 19 |
requesting is a large change and thus was brought here for discussion. |
