8 As in most other Sphinx-utilising packages, it is listed in the BDEPEND
9 variable, meaning that it is only required during the building of the package
10 [1]. If `emerge -c` isn't removing what you would expect, try something like
11 `emerge -cv dev-python/sphinx` to see the explicit reverse-dependencies blocking
12 the removal.
