[gentoo-dev] prune_libtool_files() and pkg-config dependency

2012-08-29 Thread Michał Górny
Hello, fellow developers. I'd like to note that the prune_libtool_files() in eutils.eclass has a pretty specific dependency on pkg-config. Whenever it is used in an ebuild, it should depend on virtual/pkgconfig if all of the following conditions are met: 1. The ebuild installs at least a single s

I doubt that most people consider udev's stand-alone build-time a big issue. The real issue is not the build-time but the dependencies needed at build-time (and in future versions perhaps also at run-time): Currently, these are essentially libcap and dbus. Now that some projects (e.g. hardened
