Those used to be in @system and were dropped at some point once ebuilds |
| 20 |
had proper deps. My guess would be ppl wanted to keep them commented |
| 21 |
out just in case it appeared to be a bad idea to drop them and be able |
| 22 |
to "revert" easily. Nowadays, we can probably assume it was ok :) |
