Subject: What does "QA Issue: ... rdepends on .. but its not a build dependency?" mean
Date: Sun, 03 Aug 2014 15:25:21 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <53DE3841.2000305@topic.nl> (raw)

I'm getting lots of warnings like this:

"""
WARNING: QA Issue: enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-wirelesslan rdepends on 
wireless-tools but its not a build dependency? [build-deps]
"""

What does it actually mean? What does it want me to provide here?

The message in itself is correct. The package only has a runtime 
dependency. It does not require the wireless-tools package to be built 
or otherwise present on the build system. But what is the QA issue here 
and how do I get rid of the message?

Apart from that, there's a spelling error in there (its -> it's) because 
it's "it's" when it's "it is" and it's "its" when it's its property.
