Maybe use the "minimal" use flag :). |

But seriously, the request is silly. I guess the user wouldn't have |
| 14 |
complained if xterm was never split out of the main xorg-x11 ebuild. |

After all, nobody has officially complained about useless stuff like |
| 16 |
xman, xeyes, xedit, xcalc... being installed -- all part of the |
| 17 |
official x distribution (from what I gather from another post in this |
| 18 |
thread). |
