Hi Guilherme, thanks for your interest, but this isn't really appropriate for this list. Please see [1] and [2].

Hi guys, I totally agree with the patch sent by Daniel in the previous message. I think it clarifies to the user (me, for example), why it's not possible to build pciutils with the zlib USE flag. This is just my humble opinion, though, as a user. And sorry to a bit off this thread, but I also would like to help with some translations of official docs and development. I've been using Gentoo since 1.4, but never really had time to help. Now I feel I'll have more time and, if you can point me to some Brazilian dev, if there are any, I can take some stuff to do.
