8 That depends on the application. DEPEND is a list of package
9 dependencies during compilation, while RDEPEND indicates package
10 dependencies while running. Hence, in those applications where
11 dependencies are the same at both run time and compilation time you'll see
12
13 RDEPEND="${DEPEND}"
14
15 however, if the application to be merged depend on those packages only
16 during compilation and there's no dependency at run time, the line
17
18 RDEPEND=""
19
20 is the right option.
