Hi all, Qt 5 has been available for some time, and we are making preparations to move it to the tree. As we will be supporting user choice where packages can be build against both Qt 4 and Qt 5, we will require a new global USE flag: qt5 - Adds support for the Qt 5 application and UI

2013-05-27 Thread Anthony G. Basile
Hi everyone, I was about to add a use expand flag for monkeyd (a tiny web server) and there is a notice in base/make.default to discuss use expand flags on the list first. There are about 9 plugins for monkeyd similar to apache which can be turned on/off by a configure switch. It makes sense
