I noticed when setting up my notebook that tcl got pulled in. The
culprit is dev-db/sqlite-3.32.3-r1. Note the "-tcl" USE flag.
[thimk][root][~] emerge -pv1 sqlite
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild R ] dev-db/sqlite-3.32.3-r1:3::gentoo USE="readline -debug -doc
-icu -secure-delete -static-libs -tcl -test -tools" 0 KiB
But sqlite-3.32.3-r1.ebuild shows...
=====================================
if [[ "${PV}" == "9999" ]]; then
BDEPEND=">=dev-lang/tcl-8.6:0
dev-vcs/fossil"
else
BDEPEND="app-arch/unzip
>=dev-lang/tcl-8.6:0"
fi
=====================================
Which is it? If tcl is required, then the "tcl" USE flag is misleading
and pointless, and should not show up.
