USE flags are intended to control features, not=20 dependencies. often times that just happens to translate into dependencies= =2E =20 realistically though, anyone who wants "emacs" wants all emacs "things". i= f=20 it were to just pull in the emacs dependency, then that could just as easil= y=20 be accomplished by `emerge emacs` and then we can drop the USE flag entirel= y. =2Dmike --nextPart1912423.AcpZie6GtZ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iQIVAwUAR+/MeUFjO5/oN/WBAQIDyQ//ZqeY25YKZwkDyMk2ZIaE48fdHYl6xojo N02Zdmt6uw68+EM7/EyF/xnw0N4g71PfrAhnHhYnXnmMOXJc4Gu0nXKgWOev7vU6 umy3nSYltw46UyA5eKCmEwh+5i8rNlew60UflZf/yWvxyxXQqn8g+tUtkNzB1MCR ULd8oJxHmSBay+XX67ifuqMljWOxXTzNTRZOkbY9/wGoU5nxN4xcq6AVizVgbcgC oWOLAsh+IoMcyP5ABCm8RyUqYPQtTfOyfyn/rcAfKQfPBhnZvih3HSQqouqlNKsz v/zzrvKv8Z//Mdkhs6T8KMaAsisRmegGkov8buIhDdT8y7+eC9ZJ/sLsSTI+QSN5 GlzrRchQwqOHqnztehvD8yGmYqtVfzge8hsL881PvhaP+REHW7rNe1rxWjdcnHuN En/NwuUWOsOrFVG2A2dg5u1chki4WBcRZfM7nHu0/9K6IL0Vzexuph5tcIto/P8w dBM760GDqW4EI6cPua+oX0O5DF/1FwvdTaa9/hF+9i335N9AW3KdkmG1tuzodzN8 xb4PwWWjDPOynYcMJB3udHRQxqdNngH8vYdTcPX6dN7WXwdrGZh/xo1yLFinf9c2 1HA4UULNGzlG9zgVt+yjmBeumdkoZUcXoY7JgynUog4tbERcAapyC75AUN1GJZM+ 0GIS11DV6fU= =NDA3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1912423.AcpZie6GtZ-- -- gentoo-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
