On the other hand I don't see why you=20 should support these optional dependencies, when you feel you can't or it=20 doesn't make sense. Just add them as hard dependencies. Non-issue imho. :) Carsten --nextPart20431517.i2USzTEqri Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1-ecc0.1.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBC+K60VwbzmvGLSW8RAgqpAKC8RrMYVMbt/CQU7+qVky3I6aZa2gCglmv1 f3Wm0TV6s5aaNh1+sS3ZmGQ= =dmSw -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart20431517.i2USzTEqri-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
