Build Identifier: 

app-text/antiword has a hard dependency on virtual/ghostscript in ebuild
I think such a dependency must be at least optional, if it needed at all.

Ghostscript doesn&apos;t needed for compilation of antiword, and as far as I can 
tell, for operation too. I emerged antiword with --nodeps and it works fine for 
all types of output formats (plain text, PostScript, PDF) without any 
ghostscript installed. I can guess that ghostscript is listed as dependency 
because kantiword script uses gv for rendering PostScript, but, wait a minute, 
gv is not a part of ghostscript, it&apos;s standalone package (app-text/gv). And I 
don&apos;t use kantiword anyway (USE=&quot;-kde&quot;) - why then should I fetch and install 
~13M ghostscript?
