Hello, |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
I did a reinstall recently and during the process I noticed something |
| 7 |
that might be classed as a bug, or atleast as an omission, from |
| 8 |
dependency checking. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
I was trying to install a package which arived zipped, but unzip was not |
| 11 |
installed on the system and it failed. Is it possible to make portage |
| 12 |
check that the tools it needs to do it's thang are available and install |
| 13 |
them if not? |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
I immediately spotted the problem and emerged unzip, but a newer user |
| 16 |
might not, and it's not really something that should be their problem to |
| 17 |
deal with anyway, is it? |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Cheers, |
| 20 |
