What are the exact reasons for not wanting to put the expanded flags directly into IUSE? If it's just a matter of the horrid display existing tools would give, the functionality can go in and IUSE updated after the functional versions are stabled. Are there any reasons beyond that? -- Jason Stubbs -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
