Description Boian Berberov 2008-09-04 09:57:02 UTC

I just noticed that every ebuild of sys-libs/libstatgrab depends on sys-devel/gcc.  I understand that ebuilds should not depend on packages in the system set, except under special circumstances.  This may be one of those cases, but I was not sure so I am reporting it.

Reproducible: Always
