wrong dependencies for gimp

Post by Quax »

Hi all,

trying to install gimp via slapt-get, I get the following output:

Code: Select all

root[one]# slapt-get --install gimp
Reading Package Lists... Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  babl ilmbase openexr gegl libwmf mysql qt poppler gimp 
0 upgraded, 9 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
I don't think that mysql and qt are really needed...

Regards, Quax

Hi Quax!

Actually, ilmbase and openexr are not required either. All these are not direct dependencies of gimp, but gimp depends on gegl, which had wrong dependencies of openexr and ilmbase and also poppler which had wrong dependencies of qt, which in turn references mysql (I don't know if mysql is really needed for qt and no time to check now). I fixed all of them except the last one. Thanks for the report!

I also fixed another one: the aaa_elflibs package should have no dependencies at all.

And libwmf is not needed by gimp either. Also mysql is definitely not needed by qt.
