I don't care how light dependencies are - I want to be able to choose
every single one that is optional. That is Gentoo's killer feature,
and I am thoroughly disappointed whenever I come across a dependency
which is not absolutely neccessary but hard in ebuild. It's rare, but
happens. :( I consider it a bug. I still have to file the last one I
found.
