sys-fs/xfsprogs does not have a DEPEND statement to include sys-devel/gettext,
however the package will not emerge without it being installed first. Further
exploring shows that sys-devel/gettext is not included in the
default-x86-2004.2 profile and since the system was not compiled with nls use
flag being set, performing a emerge depclean or any other dependancy checking
script says it can/should be removed.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure nls was/is not in the use flags
2. Make sure sys-devel/gettext is not currently emerged
3. Emerge sys-fs/xfsprogs
Actual Results:
Diego portage # emerge xfsprogs
