Hi.

I've just run into this yesterday on update - the system wanted to install sys-apps/acl although I have the use flag acl globally off. I have found that it is due to app-cdr/cdrtools. But it can be compiled and used without acl support ...

Note that the dependency is due to bug #198779. But I do not like the idea of breaking my system because of this package. (What happened to me was that the whole kde linked against acl despite the acl flag being off, I guess there exists a bugreport for it already, but I can't fint it now, and after some change to the libraries, no kde-related program run because of failing to load the acl library. Waiting for kdelibs rebuild when you want to run something *now* is not that funny ...)

Reproducible: Always

  Add dependency for sys-apps/acl, bug 198779

According to that bug, nobody's apparently spoken to upstream since...
