Thanks, unfortunately I don't understand the output
I've got
[ Legend : U - final flag setting for installation]
[ : I - package is installed with flag ]
[ Colors : set, unset ]
* Found these USE flags for dev-lang/python-3.1.3:
.....
- + wide-unicode : Enable wide Unicode implementation which uses 4-
byte
Unicode characters. Switching of this USE flag
changes ABI
of Python and requires reinstallation of many
Python
modules. (DON'T DISABLE THIS UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE
DOING)
So, I have U- but I+ on wide-unicode
What does that mean?
Thanks,
Helmut.
