Rebuild llvm for add support vim syntax it's fail. IMHO We have tar distribution from developer distfiles for man pages of llvm Why don't add package like app-vim/llvm-syntax with tar distribution And don't add PDEPEND for that package if USE vim-syntax enabled? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.USE=vim-syntax emerge llvm 2.go to drink coffee
This is true for a great many packages. Why stop at "fixing" sys-devel/llvm? :)
Your PDEPEND solution will cause a rebuild as well. The proper thing to do is to install vim-syntax unconditionally. @voyageur, do you agree on dropping the flag and installing the files unconditionally?

I think we need per package PDEPEND in /etc/portage/package.pdepend which don't cause a rebuild :) But it's a long story) then PDEPEND cause a rebuild it's architecture problem ) if we install vim-syntax unconditionally what to do with the dependence of app-editor/vim for what this dependency? we can install llvm-syntax without dependency from llvm and add it to world manualy but it not best choise if we uninstall llvm, llvm-syntax not needed, but it in world already i think better solution it's /etc/portage/package.pdepend or meta package :) but I believe that the idea of a meta package it's evil

Why would you need such a dependency? If you want vim-syntax, you use vim. If you use vim, you have it in your @world already. Really, random package with syntax shouldn't be responsible for pulling in vim for you :P.

This dependency don't needed, but if we install vim-syntax unconditionally i think this mean install vim-syntax always from llvm ebuild that mean add vim to dependency or we just install the necessary files, even if Vim not in the system? it's fail. IMHO

IMHO How vim is a dependency for installing those files? You don't need vim to install them, and you don't need vim to have them. They are used by vim but not specifically dependent on vim in any fashion. Practically, any other program can take those files and do whatever it wants with them.

Much like you usually don't read READMEs but they are not garbage.

Fixed in -3.3-r1 and -9999.
