Oh! 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.

Something has already pulled it in, if depclean is now trying to remove it and
according to depclean the culprit looks like libreoffice-bin. I assumed a USE
flag was set for this to occur, but you clarified no such USE flag is set.

I accepted it as a corollary of qtx11extras having been installed in your
system and now depclean wanting to remove it. The cause of qtx11extras being
present in your system escapes me.

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