Subject: [gentoo-pms] [PATCH 2/3] dependencies: Remove the circular dep special case for RDEPEND
Date: Thu, 04 Oct 2018 17:13:54
Message-Id: 20181004171340.14048-2-mgorny@gentoo.org
In Reply to: [gentoo-pms] [PATCH 1/3] dependencies: Permit {,B}DEPEND in source-initiated pkg_setup by "Michał Górny"
1 Remove the circular dependency note for RDEPEND. This is confusing
2 at best, and there is no gain from claiming that non-standard, redundant
3 Portage behavior is valid.
