I don't intend to use matplotlib for any web-related stuff, and it hauls in a lot of new deps. According to https://matplotlib.org/3.2.2/users/installing.html This package is optional. Could it be placed behind a USE? Reproducible: Always
Now that 3.1.2 has been removed from the portage tree, all matplotlib-3.* ebuilds unnecessarily hard-depend on tornado. Can we get this fixed, please?
Any update on this issue? As of matplotlib-3.3.3 still pulls tornado as a hard-dependency. Manually removing this rdepend solves the issue and matplotlib works as expected.
