It also has the advantage, that the resulting useflag 'plugins_foobar' is sane enough (opposed to 'monkeyd_plugins_foobar'). With this, it serves as a quite nice compromise for the fraction of USE_EXPAND-dislikers (like me). Unfortunately this did not get any real discussion. So could this package be an option to start this? Or do you insist on monkeyd_{plugins,modules,...}_ ? Thanks, René
