slim needs gcc-libs not gcc has dep

godane · 2008-10-17 05:06:16

I just found out that slim needs gcc for a 57kb file. This file is in gcc which is 23mb. I just want know why this one file is not gcc-libs instead gcc. This is so people how don't need gcc will need to install it in order to get slim to work.

Just my 2 cents to help make arch more customable in size of MB.

PS With gcc install, base-devel group only takes 2.6MB more of space. I just had to give you the idea.

Maybe it should. File a feature request in the bug tracker so the developer who deals with those packages see this.

Ehm, libgcc_s.so is in gcc-libs, not in gcc.

@JGC
Yes, libgcc_s.so is in gcc-libs. But libgcc_s.so.1 is in gcc. libgcc_s.so is just the soft link for libgcc_s.so.1.

I put it has a bug report at medium.

This file, as well, is in gcc-libs for me:

$ pacman -Qo /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1
/usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 is owned by gcc-libs 4.3.2-1

I think then slim just needs to be updated.

This is after i remove gcc. So i think slim just needs to update with gcc-libs dep instead of gcc dep.

I think the problem is with the slim pkgbuild rather than with gcc. It lists gcc as its dependency:

depends=(gcc libxmu libxft libjpeg libpng bash)

Edit: godane was quicker.

new bug report:
http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/11784

I think this should help get it fix now. Also i think it was gcc 4.3.1 that had libgcc_s.so.1 in it cause i couldn't get it rid of it without killing slim.
