virtual/x11 is from the old monolithic X ebuilds, before they were split
into x11-libs/*. It's been a long while since I've updated (currently on
332 of 648) and a lot of things in /var/db/pkg have virtual/x11 in their
*DEPENDs, though many seem to be in a kind of transitional state, e.g.:
/var/db/pkg/media-sound/playmidi-2.5-r1/RDEPEND:
...
X? (
|| (
( x11-libs/libX11 x11-libs/libSM x11-libs/libXaw )
virtual/x11
)
)
Sounds like something you have installed wasn't yet at that transition.
(depends on virtual/x11 without having the specific libs listed as an
alternate).
Not sure of the Paludis version of this search, but try:
# look through installed DEPENDs to find virtual/x11 listed without
# x11-libs/, then format it a bit
find /var/db/pkg -name '*DEPEND' \
| xargs grep -l virtual/x11 \
| xargs grep -L x11-libs/ \
| xargs head | grep .
On my system, I see (among several false positives):
==> /var/db/pkg/media-fonts/arabeyes-fonts-1.1/DEPEND <==
!bootstrap? ( sys-devel/patch ) X? ( virtual/x11 )
Best,
Ben
