The profiles change over time. Currently, when the profiles change, the only thing that has to be checked for conflicting USE behaviour is subprofiles. With IUSE defaults, the person making the change will also have to do a sanity check over the entire tree. Is that spelt out enough for you, or do you need it dumbed down even more? -- Ciaran McCreesh Mail : ciaranm at ciaranm.org Web : http://ciaranm.org/ as-needed is broken : http://ciaranm.org/show_post.pl?post_id=13
