So, you prefer to make ugly mess of deps here like i posted before or introduce some really unneded USE-flag like 'gui', 'qt', etc. to make users even more confused? Really, look at man-db ebuild. Especially on berkdb and gdbm USE flags. And dependency string like this: !berkdb? ( !gdbm? ( sys-libs/gdbm ) ) One sentence: "WHAT THE HELL?" Imagine that it would be dozen of flags. Is it fun to mess with deps like this for you? -- Best regards, Sergey Popov Gentoo developer Gentoo Desktop Effects project lead Gentoo Quality Assurance project lead Gentoo Proxy maintainers project lead
