The problem with this approach is when you have dependencies on a particular |
| 10 |
client or server. Then you cannot sipy depend on a package (with present |
| 11 |
portage) and instead you need to do a hackery detection and bail out in |
| 12 |
pkg_setup. I think this is the reason why, for example, bind comes as two |
| 13 |
packages: bind (for everything) and bind-tools. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Of course this multiplies the number of packages to support, if such situation |
| 16 |
is common. However the solution you describe can be considered "clean" only |
| 17 |
after #2272 is finally resolved.. |
