Description Luca Santarelli 2018-03-04 13:48:32 UTC 
The recently stabilized 1.0.14-r2 ebuild has introduced a RDEPEND on gtk+ which brings in ~80 X related packages on a headless server.

The dependency is unnecessary as previous ebuilds (1.0.14, no revisions) worked flawlessly without it installing only the scanadf command-line tool.

Please revert the dependency.

Previous ebuilds simply had an automagic dependency on gtk+2 so did not work particularly right.

But it seems that configure.in provides --disable-guis and --disable-gtk2 switches that can be used for your request.
