commit: 0f7838027ac84f2a57d98823e8b259677fe6ef36 Author: Michael Orlitzky <mjo <AT> gentoo <DOT> org> AuthorDate: Sun Jan 14 15:31:24 2018 +0000 Commit: Michael Orlitzky <mjo <AT> gentoo <DOT> org> CommitDate: Sun Oct 7 21:52:53 2018 +0000 URL: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=0f783802
profiles: unset USE=modules by default. The "modules" USE flag was originally enabled by default in the base profile so that any ebuild inheriting linux-mod.eclass would have its kernel modules built by default. However, the name of that USE flag is now controlled by the MODULES_OPTIONAL_USE variable, set in the ebuild itself. The best place for the USE flag default is therefore in IUSE (in the ebuild), because only the ebuild knows the correct flag name. There are at least two packages, media-gfx/graphicsmagick and net-im/mcabber, that assign a different meaning to the "modules" flag, further suggesting that a global default is too blunt an approach. This commit drops the flag from base/make.defaults, and also from default/linux/make.defaults where a redundant entry was present. Thereafter, the override in features/hardened/make.defaults is unnecessary, so it has been dropped as well.
