[gentoo-dev] Suggestion: Globalness of some USE flags
I think that cairo, logrotate, openexr, udev and vnc USE flags should be global. These are now local USE flags. Do you agree to change their globalness?

Local use flags: cairo: 15 logrotate: 8 openexr: 11 udev: 6 vnc: 6 And the descriptions seem to be pretty much the same in all of them from use.local.desc Steve -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list

About the udev, there's one package that doesn't share the effect: sys-apps/pcmciautils:udev - Install as an udev helper instead of a hotplug helper Which is different from the other 5 Enable udev rules file installation. -- Kind Regards, Simon Stelling Gentoo/AMD64 developer -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list

Open a bug and cc involved maintainers. This is the way it works - maybe slowly, but it does. We see people come and go and no one has the time to assure to have read all threads in this list. A bug stays open as long as it is relevant. About the udev, there's one package that doesn't share the effect: sys-apps/pcmciautils:udev - Install as an udev helper instead of a hotplug helper Which is different from the other 5 Enable udev rules file installation. Two packages. Question is, if there is an argument not to install udev rules. Carsten pgpaC0DvVf3xu.pgp Description: PGP signature

Please look at http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.devel/35754 . I said it once, I'm saying again: squid need this USE flag. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

No we didn't. It's another file in /etc, which is entirely different from another file not in /etc. My recollection was that the argument against having a logrotate USE flag that meant please install a logrotate script was that it was unnecessary since the user could just mask out /etc/logrotate.d instead (using INSTALL_MASK) if those scripts weren't desired. -g2boojum- -- Grant Goodyear Gentoo Developer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gentoo.org/~g2boojum GPG Fingerprint: D706 9802 1663 DEF5 81B0 9573 A6DC 7152 E0F6 5B76 pgpGeOfoXqVF7.pgp Description: PGP signature
