libguestfs-1.38.6 require dev-ml/ocaml and dev-ml/findlib (even if --disable-ocaml is set) in order to be compiled. While this requirement is needed, two packages (which are introducing bad dependecies) are not needed: - dev-ml/ocaml-gettext - dev-ml/ounit The patch is quite straighforward, even if i'm unsure if the above two packages are needed at all. --- a/libguestfs-1.38.6.ebuild 2020-06-25 17:27:01.451356872 +0200 +++ b/libguestfs-1.38.6.ebuild 2020-06-26 01:06:52.357122782 +0200 @@ -87,12 +87,12 @@ net-libs/libtirpc sys-libs/libxcrypt " +# only findlib (and therefore ocaml) are really required DEPEND="${COMMON_DEPEND} dev-util/gperf >=dev-lang/ocaml-4.03[ocamlopt] - dev-ml/findlib[ocamlopt] - dev-ml/ocaml-gettext - >=dev-ml/ounit-2 + dev-ml/findlib[ocamlopt] + ocaml?

The dev-lang/ocaml dependency in DEPEND can hopefully be put behind USE=ocaml also, that's how its set in COMMON_DEPEND.
