# It is sometimes requested, by both users and certain devs, to have sys-devel/gcc[graphite]
# in BDEPEND. This has not been done *on purpose*, for the following reason:
# - darktable can also be built with llvm-core/clang so we'd have to have that, as an alternative,
# in BDEPEND too
# - there are at least two darktable dependencies (media-libs/mesa and dev-lang/rust) which
# by default pull in llvm-core/clang
# - as a result of the above, for most gcc users adding the above to BDEPEND is a no-op
# (and curiously enough, empirical observations suggest current versions of Portage are
# more likely to pull in Clang to build darktable with than to request enabling USE=graphite
# on GCC; that might be a bug though)
