--- Comment #1 from Rainer Hurling <rhurlin@FreeBSD.org> ---
Thanks, Martin, for the report. Good question!

I seem to remember that qt-doc once had a role for dependents (plugins?).
Unfortunately I can't find my records anymore. If memory does not deceive me
and doc should be used, however, using qdoc is probably more correct.

I have since built and installed QGIS (1) without doc and (2) with qdoc wit=
hout
doc. I don't notice anything missing at runtime. So I will probably do with=
out
it completely in the future.

Currently I am still trying to get information from QGIS developers if doc/=
qdoc
should be used for reasons I don't know.


One more thought about the dependencies in QGIS:
The dependency list in the QGIS port is unfortunately very high. Many of the
dependencies are necessary for good functionality of plugins that are usual=
ly
included. Otherwise such plugins don't work without giving the user concrete
hints about the causes. I am considering whether and in what form such
dependencies can be included only optionally.
