Description hanetzer 2019-04-20 03:56:34 UTC
One of the major primary features of EAPI 7 is the addition of BDEPEND
and other B-prefixed variables. These are programs which are required
for build and must be able to be executed by the building system.
virtual/pkgconfig is for the most part only required for building barring
the occasional buildsystem type package or IDE. It logically belongs in
BDEPEND in almost all cases.
