| 4 | If you inherit some eclass with deps, not set RDEPEND won't be defaulted to |
| 5 | DEPEND from ebuild, but will also include deps from eclass, which is |
| 6 | incorrect b/c these deps are needed for build time only(like sed, |
| 7 | autotools...). One needs to make sure that RDEPEND is correct if not set |
| 8 | manually in ebuild with eclasses. |
