What requires libgcc, actually?

2009-10-28 Thread Linus Walleij
Just a quick question for those who know:

The shared libs from libgcc: /lib/libgcc*so* are not required by
anything:

[r...@localhost ~]# rpm -q --whatrequires libgcc-4.4.1-2.fc11.i586
no package requires libgcc-4.4.1-2.fc11.i586

I have a vague memory that libstdc++ uses this runtime for e.g.
exception and that is why it's there.

Is libstdc++ missing a Requires: libgcc in it's spec, and/or are other
packages missing it as well?

It makes little sense to have a package installed that is not used
by anything

Use this instead:
repoquery --whatrequires "libgcc_s.so.1()(64bit)"
or on 32bit systems:
repoquery --whatrequires  libgcc_s.so.1

Or more generally:

% repoquery --whatrequires --alldeps libgcc
