There are thousands of packages in the portage tree but not a single line on which USE-var is related to which package. All I was able to find was: "dvd adds support for DvDs". Fine. I'd never thought that DvD support is disabled by default in a tool like Mplayer. And in fact it is NOT, when I get the tool from the mplayer site, directly. So, what is it worth this extra little fuzz? In the end, an experience like this can only lead to a blind "better enable everything" since no one is able to keep track of all bells and whistles each package comes with. And this way making the USE mimik more or less obsolete. Best regards. micha On Wednesday 09 April 2003 23:47, Martin Schlemmer wrote: > On Thu, 2003-04-10 at 00:48, M.
