emerge info

I'm using sys-apps/shadow with USE="-nls", and it fails to build without gettext.

In ebuild, the dependency is added only with USE="nls".
In the upsteam code, https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/blob/4.7/configure.ac#L662 , we can the checks for gettext, which in my understanding are unconditional on gettext.

Of course, when I manually installed gettext, the ebuild was successful.
