OK, then: |

|
| 14 |
alsa - this does not make most sense definitely, this horrible thing needs |
| 15 |
to die. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
emboss - "Adds support for the European Molecular Biology Open Software |
| 18 |
Suite." WTF? Why are we abusing make.defaults for such stuff? |
| 19 |
|

eds - please, fix the ebuilds properly instead of throwing the thing on |

everyone. This has already caused numerous invalid bugs with people |

wondering why the heck portage wants to emerge gnome with USE="-gtk -gnome" |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |

| 25 |
