The latest version 3.1 only needs USE=berkdb on Python...so problem
solved for me.

Some more small candidates to discuss:

* How would people feel about killing off automagic RDEPEND=DEPEND
behaviour?

* Officially kill off AA. It's not useful.

* Kill off KV. This should be eclass territory.

* Ban dohtml, which is weird, and add '-u dir' to dodoc, so you
can use dodoc -r -u html blah instead.

* We currently have .xz / .tar.xz support for unpack down for EAPI 3.
Am I right in thinking there's nothing stable that can handle .xz
files?

But then we shouldn't introduce doexample, but use "dodoc -r -u
examples" instead.
I liked that dohtml can filter based on file endings, this made it in
the past easier to install html docs.
So, if we could have something like:
filter_files -t web docs/ | dodoc -r -u html
that would be fine :-)

As far as I know, but vapier is probably the expert here.
