Description Bruno 2011-10-24 17:17:10 UTC 
From looking at qrencode I see no reason why it has RDEPEND and DEPEND on dev-python/imaging (grep through contents of tarball show no single hit for imaging or python).

compiling and executing qrencode works without dev-python/imaging.

What is the reason on the dependency?
If it's just a reminder of the past, please consider dropping that dependency.

Reproducible: Always

Since i didn't add this dependency, i don't really have a clue.
Comment 2 Justin Lecher (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-12-12 08:42:02 UTC 
The reason why it was added was bug 375289. And you are right, it should be added to qrencode-python and not to qrencode itself. Sorry for that and thanks for the report.
