Some packages provide both a client and a server. As such, users usually only want one or the other - and rarely both.
A good candidate is net-misc/dhcp as it installs a DHCP client and server. Which makes no sense really, so I'd like to put some USE flags here to show what I want, or not want to build. A quick scan through the use flags show no real consistency, so here's what I propose USE client server client - just build the client - duh server - just build the server - duh client and server OR neither then build both. Other packages to possably beneift udhcp mldonkey samhain bacula boxbackup Interestingly, many packages have a server USE flag but not a client one - maybe make both a global USE flag? Good idea? Bad idea? Thoughts? Thanks -- Roy Marples <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Gentoo/Linux Developer (baselayout, networking) -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
