[gentoo-dev] Global USE flags bite the dust...
The following global USE flags have been deleted from the tree because no ebuild uses them. dba dio ingres msession nhc98 oggvorbis zeo I'm also going to move mcve to a local USE flag for PHP. In fact it should really just go away since PHP is no longer shipping the MCVE extension built in. It's a PECL module only.

However, some of these flags are used elsewhere (as Stu has already noted), and I think since they've been around a while, and can easily be used by other new/old packages without changes to profiles/use.local.desc, they should stay where they are (global).

Personally, I'd like to see the following groups of changes happen one way or another: * Improve QA with/by: - Detecting conflicting USE flags; That one is on the map for trying to address via eapi=1; intention was to resurrect the approach of using a seperate metadata key, and extending depset support to include xor so that representing the _valid_ use conditional states is possible. Simple example, if you need mysql or postgres, but not both; VALID_USE_STATES=^ ( mysql postgres ) if it's not required to have them enabled, but still need one or the other if enabled VALID_USE_STATES=( || ( mysql postgres ) ^ ( mysql postgres ) ) Would need to extend depset in this case to support negation of blocks also (nand/nor); downside, it gets verbose. Upshot, it uses extisting syntax folks are familar with; the verbosity of it would also go down if/when use groups were implemented thus replacing USE_EXPAND (something that needs resurrecting and is another bit on the map, although not guranteed to be targeted). ~harring pgpL6Tum3Pj35.pgp Description: PGP signature

[gentoo-dev] Globalization of some USE flags etc.
I would like to suggest to globalize cairo and openexr USE flags because they
are used by enough amount of packages.
Also I have got a question about udev USE flag.
udev USE flag is now local USE flag. In 4 cases this flag has description
Enable udev rules file installation and in 2 cases - Install as an udev
helper instead of a hotplug helper.
As `find /usr/portage/profiles/ -name make.defaults -exec grep -l udev {} \;`
says udev USE flag is set defaultly in the following files:
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/alpha/2006.0/make.defaults
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/alpha/no-nptl/make.defaults
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/alpha/2006.1/make.defaults
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2006.0/make.defaults
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2006.1/make.defaults
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/sparc/sparc32/2006.0/make.defaults
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/sparc/sparc32/2006.1/make.defaults
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/sparc/sparc64/2006.0/make.defaults

/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/ppc/ppc64/2006.0/32bit-userland/make.defaults
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/ppc/ppc64/2006.0/multilib/make.defaults
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/ppc/ppc64/2006.1/64bit-userland/make.defaults

/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/amd64/2006.1/make.defaults
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/ia64/2006.0/make.defaults
Is udev USE flag set there because of necessity of Enabling udev rules file
installation or because of necessity of Installing as an udev helper instead
of a hotplug helper?

Re: [gentoo-dev] Globalization of some USE flags etc.

I would like to suggest to globalize cairo and openexr USE flags because they

Also I have got a question about udev USE flag.
udev USE flag is now local USE flag. In 4 cases this flag has description
Enable udev rules file installation and in 2 cases - Install as an udev
helper instead of a hotplug helper.
As `find /usr/portage/profiles/ -name make.defaults -exec grep -l udev {} \;`
says udev USE flag is set defaultly in the following files:
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/alpha/2006.0/make.defaults

/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/amd64/2006.1/make.defaults

Is udev USE flag set there because of necessity of Enabling udev rules file
installation or because of necessity of Installing as an udev helper
instead of a hotplug helper?
Actually, because of both. We definitely want the udev files installed.
Truthfully, they should probably be installed by default.

Nobody shoud be adding stuff to portage without taking responsibility for it. I am not adding stuff. I am fixing existing packages. And I am taking responsibility.

Maybe I'm just a moron (well, likely I am), but why are you two posting this shit on the dev ml? Conflict for a change, fine, carlo go revert it. Crazy notion, but it's a one minute revert, yes it's not your mess but it is your package and _your_ users, leaving your users hanging because you're trying to make genstef clean something up screws the users over. The proper forum for crap like this is via taking it up with QA/devrel. Screaming about a change on the ml doesn't accomplish anything more then making you look like a jack ass trying to publically embarass someone you're pissed at; at least carlo has a reason, stephen you're just being an asshole. Further, Stephen shouldn't even know about a candidates failing, let alone go stating it on a public ml. Really nice one there; someone tries to help, deemed not yet skilled enough to have access to the tree, and you're bringing it up as a way to take potshots at genstef. Further, you're taking a potshot at a dev candidate who via going through the process was at least *trying* to contribute, even if they didn't pass the quiz. Carlo, go talk to devrel, stephen, go do your monthly mips stabling. Meanwhile spare us the idiocy, and do something productive.
