The expected output of the emerge with -qt3 in USE flag

Description George .H 2007-02-23 14:08:57 UTC
If you want to emerge wvdial on a gentoo system where you do not want Xorg to be installed (or any type of desktop, a server machine lets say) it tries to install Xorg and various other related packages.

Contents of my make.conf are:
USE="-X -acpi -alsa -apm -arts -qt -gtk -gtk2 -kde -gnome -cups -oss -motif -ldap dvdr crypt mysql mysqli imap libwww maildir samba ssl nptl perlsuid apache2"

As you can see I don't want X. What seems to fix this is adding -qt3 to my make.conf. Though wvdial does not REALLY need qt3 or some gui.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -pv wvdial wvstreams

qt3 is a default flag in profiles, you can check those w/  `USE_ORDER="defaults" emerge --info`
