Description Jouni Rinne 2009-12-16 19:32:11 UTC 
Is tcl an optional dependency for sqlite-3.6.21 or not?

RDEPEND="icu? ( dev-libs/icu )
        readline? ( sys-libs/readline )
        tcl? ( dev-lang/tcl )"
DEPEND="${RDEPEND}
        dev-lang/tcl
        doc? ( app-arch/unzip )"

This is obvious that you need tcl to *build* sqlite regardless of USE flags and that if you want tcl support in sqlite (runtime) you get it with the tcl USE flag. (and a --enable-tcl option to configure)

What's the point of 'tcl' use-flag, then? You need to install tcl anyway! That's quite confusing...

Wrong, if it's only in DEPEND it allows --depclean to remove it, that's the difference of DEPEND's and RDEPEND's.
