During my regular update, I see that net-dns/bind-tools is upgrading from 9.14 to 9.16, and that's triggering the installation of _17_ new packages (all apparently related to sphinx and Babel).
Is this sort of dependency bloat really necessary? The "doc" flag for bind-tools is not set, so why does it demand that sphinx be installed? Does bind-tools really need packages like sphinxcontrib-qthelp, sphinxcontrib-applehelp, sphinxcontrib-jsmath, sphinxcontrib-htmlhelp? -- Grant
