devil requires installing allegro4, freeglut and sdl even though they are only needed by library libILUT, which provides glut support for devil libraries. These should be optional dependencies.

libILUT cannot work without allegro4, freeglut and sdl because they are dynamicly linked, so they cannot be set as OptDepends.

One solution is to build devil without libILUT, as it doesn't seem that packages are using libILUT...

A modified version without these dependencies, so without libILUT is pushed in community-testing.

Waiting feedback before moving to community.
