A question about ogre's optional dependencies

http://www.archlinux.org/packages/commu … 6_64/ogre/

ogre package has a few optional dependencies.

optdepends=('cppunit: unit testing'
            'intel-tbb: better threading support'
            'poco: portability'
            'boost: for developing using ogre')

but these packages will be used only if they are "compiled with ogre".

ogre in community repository is just pre-compiled files. Then how archlinux handle this?

I think current archlinux doesn't handle this at all.

Re: A question about ogre's optional dependencies

FInd out if it works or not - facts are more persuasive than what you think may be happening.

If it definitely doesn't work as intended, post a bug.
