Dear all,

I was just looking into the meaning of the introspection use-flag and
there are many ebuilds that use it so perhaps it should be globalized,
which would also give us a chance to improve the naming/description.
Current descriptions are:

Use dev-libs/gobject-introspection for introspection
Enable GObject introspection.

Currently it is hard to tell which functionality is enabled through this
flag and the meaning of the descriptions for when the flag is off are
even more unclear. Does it mean that introspection will not be used or
will some other way of introspection be used? Either way, perhaps the
people in the know could shed some light on this issue?

Thanks,

Marijn
