[gentoo-user] Captive requires gnome?

[Michael Kintzios]

Hi All,

I am trying to emerge Captive but it wants to pull in some gnome dependencies.  
Is there a way of avoiding this on a non-gnome machine?

# emerge -upDv captive

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

You may find out this by yourself. Just look into
`less /usr/portage/sys-fs/captive/captive-1.1.7.ebuild`.

DEPEND variable list all dependencies that are required. So if you look
there you'll see that gnome-base/libbonobo, gnome-base/gnome-vfs and
some other things are required from maintainer's pov :) If you think
maintainer is wrong report about this issue on bugs.gentoo.org.
