            Bug ID: 190929
           Summary: split lrelease/lupdate out of linguist
           Product: Ports Tree
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: Needs Triage
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: amdmi3 at FreeBSD.org

Many Qt ports require lrelease/lupdate to compile their translations. These
programs are provided by qt4-linguist port, however that port provided much
more that just these utilities, namely GUI applications for translation and
pulls in many heavyweight depends, such as qt4-gui, qt4-assistant (which in
turn pulls qt4-webkit, xml, network, sql etc.). With that, compiling a simple
CLI application which just uses qt4-corelib (astro/gpsbabel for example) pulls
in too much unneeded heavyweight and gui stuff.

That said, lrelease/lupdate should be split out of qt4-linguist, and
corresponding USE_QT4 item added so qt applications using nls may be build
without pulling extraneous depends.
