Hello, I've tried to analyze packages' dependencies and noticed interesting thing, which os easier to show than to explain in words:
--- Processing SUNWgnome-search-tool Declared deps: SUNWgnome-config; SUNWgnome-vfs; SUNWgnome-libs; SUNWgnome-panel; SUNWgnome-base-libs; SUNWcsl Calculated by ldd: SUNWdbus; SUNWlxml or openoffice; SUNWgnome-libs; SUNWgnome-panel; SUNWgnome-component; openoffice or SUNWfreetype2; SUNWgnome-audio; SUNWgnome-vfs; SUNWgnome-base-libs; SUNWxwrtl or SUNWxorg-clientlibs; SUNWdbus-bindings; SUNWxwrtl or SUNWxwplt; SUNWlibms; SUNWopenssl; SUNWfontconfig; SUNWmlib; SUNWzlib; SUNWgnome-config; SUNWpng; SUNWxwrtl or SUNWxwice; SUNWlexpt; SUNWcsl; SUNWlibpopt --- maybe all those low-level libraries would be installed anyway to satisfy dependencies of high-level libraries -- I don't know, haven't traversed dependency tree yet. But I want to clarify dependency policy: Should package declare dependency on all other packages it uses or only to high-level ones? _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
