1 I see packages like bison, flex, perl or sed in the system set. And i also see ebuilds depending on
2 them. I also heard from Peter Volkov (pva) that there where discussions about removing different
3 packages from the system set. So now my question is:
4
5 Should we depend on all system packages? Should we depend on some packages, because they could be
6 removed? If yes, which ones? Or should we leave the system packages out completly?
