Interesting! It seems there is nothing wrong with it other than the |
| 22 |
fact that I didn't know about it, so thanks for the pointer! |

qdepends -Q does indeed seem to do the same thing as my own script, |
| 24 |

It's also a lot faster than --depclean munging since it seems to |
| 26 |
simply grep through the DEPEND/USE variables in one go. Nice! |
