Message-ID: <1027007727.3d36e4efa5c83@www.borowka.net> (raw)
I like this idea!
However, a simpler solution would be to introduce some priority
of USE flags. "-X" would also say -gtk because gtk depends on X.
Then, we could eventually introduce f.e. "sound" use flag and make
alsa, oss... dependant on it.
