29 I actually don't have doc or xsl USE explicitly enabled. depclean
30 wants to remove libxslt, so I'm doing that. It's confusing because
31 'equery depends libxslt' says php and glib depend on libxslt. I guess
32 that's the buildtime dependency you're talking about? Does that mean
33 the package only needs to be installed while php and glib and being
34 compiled, and can then be removed?
