Well, then what our Portage devs think the intended behaviour should be is a bug. E.g. in the case the bug refers to, we rely on Portage building kdnssd-avahi after kdelibs (otherwise it simply would fail), but before any other ebuild that might need kdnssd-avahi. And I'm pretty sure nearly everyone using PDEPEND in his ebuilds relies on Portage building the PDEPEND not before the ebuild, which lists it. > We need to update docs or harass zmedico to force PDEPEND to be pulled as > soon as possible but not before the pkg that pulls it.
