Assuming dynamic dependencies don't exist, another package would still |

depend on the USE flag in the vdb; the only way to force that USE flag |

dependency to go away is with an unnecessarily rebuilding rev bump, as |

without it it would complain that the USE flag doesn't exist. |

(We're talking about RDEPEND="some/pkg[useflag]" --> RDEPEND="some/pkg") |
