I got rid of it by switching to a flatpak version of the singular
desktop application that required it on my system.

Normally I'll always choose a native package but qtwebengine builds for
a program that I run a couple of times a week skews the reward/effort
ratio.

Nice idea, but it's not for me I'm afraid:

$ emerge -cvp qtwebengine

Calculating dependencies  ... done!

Thanks for the tip, Nikos.  I wouldn't mind trying this, because qtwebengine 
is a pain to emerge on resource constrained hardware:

>>> Running pre-merge checks for dev-qt/qtwebengine-5.15.10_p20230623

However, I wonder what will break if I were to do this:

That's a idea but since everything works well enough, I don't mind the
compile times. After all, I nap while it does it anyway.  Someone else
may see that info and find it interesting tho.  Maybe someone with a
laptop or a really under-powered system.  I never thought about trying
to get rid of it.  I didn't know it was possible even. 

Thanks.

Off-topic, but just in case you mean qtwebengine, I was able to get rid 
of it by putting "-webengine" in my USE flags. After a world update, a 
depclean should then remove it from the system.


You might have to juggle a few other USE flags in specific packages to 
make it happen though, I forgot. It's been a while.
