Subject: [gentoo-dev] Make inotify a global USE flag?
X-Mailer: VM 8.2.0b under 24.3.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)
From: Ulrich Mueller <ulm@gentoo.org>
X-Archives-Salt: ed6a8798-d211-441c-88f7-eedf750b1751
X-Archives-Hash: c4cfdf9e28fa945e58308edbaf35b2e4

These packages have inotify as local USE flag:

   app-editors/emacs-vcs
   app-misc/recoll
   app-misc/strigi
   dev-libs/ecore
   dev-vcs/git-annex
   media-sound/mpd
   net-im/ekg2
   net-misc/mediatomb
   sys-fs/aufs2
   sys-fs/aufs3
   sys-process/cronie

Should we make it a global flag? What description is better:

   inotify - Enable inotify filesystem monitoring support
   inotify - Enable inotify file change notification support

BTW, half of the local flag descriptions are "Enable inotify support".
Imagine that! ;-)
