The built files are examined for dependencies on shared libraries (e.g.). As kate4-part is not listed as a _direct_ explicit dependency in the kvirc spec file, either it provides a library needed at runtime. Or another required library package depends on kate4-part. What depends on kate4-part in any way? Let's see: # repoquery --whatrequires kate4-part --qf '%{name}'|sort|uniq calligra-kexi-libs kdelibs-ktexteditor (!) <------- kdevplatform kile kmail kompare ktikz piklab pykde4 rkward > kdelibs-ktexteditor x86_64 6:4.14.14-1.fc23 > updates 81 k That one is a library required by kdelibs, which in turn is a direct shared lib dep of kvirc. # repoquery --exactdeps --whatrequires kdelibs-ktexteditor --qf '%{name}' # -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
