Description Dimitri Jakov 2011-02-24 00:08:59 CET

Description of problem:

groff comes with a program, /usr/bin/xtotroff, that makes the whole package depend on X11 libraries, namely libX11.so.6 and libXt.so.6. This makes Midnight Commander pull out X11, which is not quite acceptable for server/cluster deployments. The package should probably be split.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

1.20.1-3.mga1

How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. urpmi mc
2. enjoy X11 :)
3.

Fixed in next package; now groff-gxditview has been renamed to groff-x11 and includes both gxditview and xtotroff both of which require X, (thanks to Fedora, as I used their spec for this split).

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED
