FR: Checks when BDEPEND should be used instead

[juippis]

Hey,

I wonder if it's possible to check when some deps should be placed in BDEPEND instead of DEPEND or RDEPEND. I can imagine most of the times tools such as 'doxygen' and 'sphinx' should be placed under BDEPEND, but I believe in some cases they can go under RDEPEND as well. Just throwing the idea and asking if it's possible.

I'm just personally looking for a list of packages that by default should go under BDEPEND :)

This should be actually quite easy.
I imagine something like:
if ! grep -q "BDEPEND" $ebuild && grep -q "doxygen" $ebuild; then echo "doxygen should go into BDEPEND"; fi (very simple)

However, i probably would go with a list of packages which should go into BDEPEND. Otherwise i would need hints about how to determine if a dependency should go into BDEPEND, which I would be glad if you could provide a list. doxygen and sphinx is already a good start, if you know more please let me know.
