Description Cedric Sodhi 2012-01-01 18:30:14 UTC
Octave without -doc should not require any latex, such as dev-texlive/texlive-genericrecommended-2010.

Gnuplot should be subjected to a gnupluot USE flag.

qrupdate should be subjected to a qrupdate USE flag.

Further, I propose that other things such as graphicsmagick are subjected to USE flags such as, say, "image".

Reproducible: Always

gnuplot is not even necessary at build or run time

done via global imagemagick flag

all these deps were historically forced to avoid automagic. feel free to provide patches next time.
