That depends on the application. DEPEND is a list of package
dependencies during compilation, while RDEPEND indicates package
dependencies while running. Hence, in those applications where
dependencies are the same at both run time and compilation time you'll see

        RDEPEND="${DEPEND}"

however, if the application to be merged depend on those packages only
during compilation and there's no dependency at run time, the line

        RDEPEND=""

is the right option.
