libsamplerate is a runtime dependencey of alsa-utils. Without it there are broken # equery u alsa-utils|cat -doc -minimal -nls # revdep-rebuild -i * Configuring search environment for revdep-rebuild * Checking reverse dependencies * Packages containing binaries and libraries broken by a package update * will be emerged. * Collecting system binaries and libraries * Generated new 1_files.rr * Collecting complete LD_LIBRARY_PATH * Generated new 2_ldpath.rr * Checking dynamic linking consistency [ 8% ] * broken /usr/bin/alsaloop (requires libsamplerate.so.0) [ 100% ] * Generated new 3_broken.rr * Assigning files to packages * /usr/bin/alsaloop -> media-sound/alsa-utils [...] This bug appears to be introduced by but #383263 where it is stated it should be in DEPEND, but actually it should (also) be in RDEPEND.

I have made the common dependencies a variable now, to hopefully prevent such incidents in the future.
