A quick scan through the portage directory turns up: # find /usr/portage/ -iname '*.ebuild' | xargs grep "virtual/glibc" | wc -l 1982 # find /usr/portage/ -iname '*.ebuild' | xargs grep -v "virtual/glibc" | wc -l 406821 So most ebuilds don't do this anyway. What's the rule of thumb for adding this as a dep?
