x11-libs/vte has a vala use flag but even if the flag is disabled, the package depends on dev-lang/vala. I made this dependency conditional and vte built fine: DEPEND="${RDEPEND} - $(vala_depend) + vala? ( $(vala_depend) ) >=dev-util/gtk-doc-am-1.13 I had to install vte as a dependency of app-emulation/virt-manager. So far, I didn't notice any problems but I am not familiar with all use cases of vte. Hence, I would like to ask if this dependency can be removed indeed?
