1 | Checking for a package that isn't either a direct or indirect dependency is |
2 | plain wrong. package.provided is not supported - it's the users fault, if he |
3 | insists to sidestep Portage. There is no valid case for your construct. With |
4 | regards to QA, it wouldn't be wrong to have a better solution, but given that |
5 | built_with_use() is itself only a workaroud for still not having use |
6 | dependencies, it's a bit pointless. |
