I discussed this a few weeks ago with some devs on IRC and the general
answer was, file bugs.
I filed bugs. About the rest, I decline any comment. Have fun.

RDEPEND is the only _valid_ solution.

Others here gave opposite opinion by the way.

weird that other PMs out there do
that since 1994 (replace 1994 with older value).
Perhaps adding a big fat # XXX somewhere in ebuilds would have helped
us all in saving some time today.
So, at least for now, I suspect I have to give up and close my shiny
27 bugs. Right?

I really love the idea of being able to atomically push updates across
multiple CPVs.
This is also what KDE, GNOME, and many other teams are waiting for.
Having multiple repos means no atomicity and at this point, I would
rather prefer CVS (omg!).

Who is this poor little PDEPEND?
I think it's time to take action and fix the gray area around
PDEPENDs, or at least clarify the fact to us developers.

I would rather want to see it becoming mandatory by PMS, also.
But beside the ASAP, do you agree that there is still a dependency issue?

Hi,
straight question. Is there anybody out there using genkernel-based
kernels+initramfs and unionfs?
The support inside genkernel is rotting and it would be nice to have
it removed and replaced by aufs2, and by dm-snapshot afterwards
(thanks to likewhoa for the advice).

But the same applet can be used in both GNOME and LXDE, making
lxpolkit a better choice over polkit-gnome for the latter.
My proposal is to create a virtual pkg listing all the polkit auth
agent implementations and make pkgs depend on it.

Anything using /proc/config.gz is broken.

pkg_setup() is shared between binpkgs and srcpkgs, and often it ends
up containing stuff that should be rather placed into
src_{prepare,configure,whatever}.

and this is the only case I can think of.
If you need to schedule a dep install at some point, you should rather
use PDEPEND, but if the same is required earlier in the schedule,
well, you're flooked.

Correct, I didn't want to be so picky on
adata.xml (adding to its .dtd) to also support this?
It would be nice to show this info in GUI package managers instead of
the actual, and ugly (for the newbies), CP or CPV.
It would be just a small addition that would make a big diff.
So?
