Eye updated now, using the new virtual ABI package, but unfortunately 
couldn't move to lighter dependency than the -nox package as that has a 
needed pcre module.

I hope others will benefit from the package split.  Speaking of which, I 
suggest to have the core packages only suggest (not recommend) the -doc 
package.
