I see. Then if qt5 is not set in your system libreoffice-bin should not try to pull in such a dependency, unless ... it is hardcoded in it. > > Anyway, it shouldn't be too onerous to test unmerging dev-qt/qtx11extras, > > then run 'emerge -t -p -D -v @world' and see what is trying to pull it > > back in. > > Once again: NOTHING IS PULLING IT IN.

I accepted it as a corollary of qtx11extras having been installed in your system and now depclean wanting to remove it.

Right, Eli's reply with his dive into the build shows libreoffice-bin has qtx11extras hardcoded as a dependency. Which explains the conundrum.
