You mean make.defaults here, right?

In the beginning, there was nothing. And God said, 'Let there be

That's why we're going to ask them to be added to default useflags :)

not just the ~30 packages that use qt USE flag. it disrupts packages
that link to them . For example, yesterday I tried to burn some DVD.
Click on k3b icon didn't make it run. I have to run it from konsole
to find out that it can't load /usr/lib/libdbus-qt-1.so.1.0.0 .
I don't really object to #2 but please do inform current users so
thing still work after an `emerge world -Du`

Thanks,
