| 5 | They're not just build dependencies. They're required to use the library in a |
| 6 | certain way, namely to compile other programs against it. As long as we |
| 7 | don't have compile-against dependencies, the only correct way to express that |
| 8 | is RDEPEND (and also DEPEND because they're /also/ needed to build the |
| 9 | library itself). |
