-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi.
During the course of bug 280312[1], we (KDE team) made the pm-utils support in powerdevil optional based on a use flag. Although hal was already using the "laptop" use flag for similar support, we decided to use the "pm-utils" use flag as wicd was already doing. The decision was based on the dislike for the laptop use flag by most of the people discussing this issue in #gentoo-dev at that point. As these packages are using these flags to enable support for suspend/resume through the sys-power/pm-utils package, we should pick one name for that flag and apply it on all packages. Raúl (armin76) has also suggested in #gentoo-dev[2] that we should mask the use flag globally and only unmask it on arches that support it. Any suggestions for the use flag name? If not, which use flag would you prefer? Any objections to mask the use flags globally as Raúl suggested? [1] - https://bugs.gentoo.org/280312 [2] - 2009/08/16-16:50 <@armin76> i think both laptop and pm-utils should be masked globally and then unmasked on arches that can run it - -- Regards, Jorge Vicetto (jmbsvicetto) - jmbsvicetto at gentoo dot org Gentoo- forums / Userrel / Devrel / SPARC / KDE -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkqIH44ACgkQcAWygvVEyAJyXgCgjV/qU+9gXRsMhKYvggJduPto +i4An0YW2/D2H5UjCMmb5JA97a1MUDQf =48yT -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
