Here are the possabilities -client -server +client -server +client +server -client +server Do we read -client -server and +client +server to mean the same thing? If so the logic can read if use client || ! use server ; then # build client fi if use server || ! use client ; then # build server fi How does portage stop us from doing that now? -- Roy Marples Gentoo/Linux Developer (baselayout, networking) -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
