Does this message from emerge --depclean mean that there's a
dependency on dev-qt/qtx11extras:5 missing from the libreoffice-bin
ebuild?

Or have I managed to break something?

    $ sudo emerge --depclean --ask

     *   dev-qt/qtx11extras-5.15.16 pulled in by:
     *     app-office/libreoffice-bin-24.2.7.2 needs libQt5X11Extras.so.5
     * 

I've also noticed that the output from equery --depends isn't
particularly useful when the dependancy is conditional:

    $ equery depends dev-qt/qtx11extras
     * These packages depend on dev-qt/qtx11extras:
    app-crypt/pinentry-1.3.1 (X ? dev-qt/qtx11extras:5)
                             (X ? dev-qt/qtx11extras:5)
    media-libs/suil-0.10.20 (qt5 ? dev-qt/qtx11extras:5)
                            (qt5 ? dev-qt/qtx11extras:5)

It _looks_ like pinentry should require qtx11extras, since pinentry is
installed with the X use flag:

    $ emerge -av --pretend app-crypt/pinentry
    [...]
    [ebuild   R    ] app-crypt/pinentry-1.3.1::gentoo  USE="X gtk ncurses -caps 
-efl -emacs -keyring -qt5 -qt6 -verify-sig -wayland" 0 KiB

However, the _actual_ dependency isn't just (X ? dev-qt/qtx11extras:5)
as shown by equery, it is

    (qt5 ? (X ? dev-qt/qtx11extras:5)

I guess I need to find someththing better than 'equery depends'.
