Just to confirm (as I've had one such bug marked WONTFIX), should a package that depends on say, qt-gui (which in turn depends on qt-core), list an explicit dependency on qt-core if it uses symbols from it? tinderbox ~ # readelf -d /usr/bin/lfhex | grep Qt 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libQtGui.so.4] 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libQtCore.so.4] tinderbox ~ # equery g lfhex | grep qt [ 1] x11-libs/qt-gui-4.7.3-r1 Best regards, Michael
