OOo depends on it, no matter what you have in /etc/portage.
I am pretty sure that it uses /var/db/pkg/${category}/${name}/USE
to determine the USE flags that were used when the package was
compiled.
It should, but it doesn't do that. For example, on my system I have
no hal:
$ eix -e hal | grep Installed
Installed: none
But:
$ equery depends hal
[ Searching for packages depending on hal... ]
gnome-base/gnome-vfs-2.12.2
app-cdr/k3b-0.12.15
It apparently produces any package that either depends on hal, or
_conditionally_ depends on hal. It clearly doesn't take USE flags
into account.
$ emerge --info | grep hal
[nothing]
$ equery --version
equery(0.1.4) - Gentoo Package Query Tool
Author(s): Karl Trygve Kalleberg
The previous version didn't list any conditional dependency, even
when the USE flag was set and the package installed, the current
version lists these conditional deps always.
