17 Sometimes the former is the best way to achieve the latter (smile).

19 I have Thunar installed with USE='-udev', but I also have Gvfs installed
20 & 'emerge -cpv gvfs' tells me it's needed for Thunar.
21 My conclusion is that this dependency is absolute
22 & that's confirmed by looking at the ebuild itself,
23 which says GVFS_DEPEND=">=gnome-base/gvfs-1.10.1" .
