Subject: [gentoo-dev] Proposed last rites for sci-chemistry/coot and a bunch of reverse dependencies

1 I was investigating what needs to be done to drop guile-1.8 from the
2 tree (bug 590558, 587252). sci-chemistry/coot is one of the blocking
3 packages (bug 591410). It has a version bump request open for 18
4 months (bug 639760) and hasn't been maintained in as long. The new
5 version doesn't appear to work with guile-2.0 either, though it seems
6 that it may be possible to build without guile? Something for a
7 maintainer...

11 sci-chemistry/coot (no rev deps)
12 sci-libs/coot-data (rev deps: sci-chemistry/coot)
13 sci-libs/ssm (rev deps: sci-chemistry/coot)
14 sci-libs/gpp4 (no rev deps)
15 sci-libs/cctbx (no rev deps)
16 sci-libs/clipper (rev deps: sci-chemistry/coot, sci-libs/cctbx)
17 sci-libs/libccp4 (rev deps: sci-chemistry/coot, sci-libs/{clipper,ssm}
18 sci-libs/monomer-db (rev deps: sci-chemistry/coot)
19 sci-libs/mmdb (rev deps: sci-chemistry/coot,
20 sci-libs/{clipper,gpp4,libcpp4,ssm}
21 sci-chemistry/reduce (rev deps: sci-chemistry/coot)
22 dev-scheme/guile-gui (rev deps: sci-chemistry/coot; dead home page)
