Hello all,
There is a discepancy in the way that mm-sources and development-sources
handles virtual/alsa. Have a look:
bash-2.05b$ grep alsa /usr/portage/sys-kernel/development-sources/
development-sources-2.6.0_beta5-r11.ebuild
IUSE="alsa"
[ -n "$(use alsa)" ] && PROVIDE="${PROVIDE} virtual/alsa"
bash-2.05b$ grep alsa /usr/portage/sys-kernel/mm-sources/
mm-sources-2.6.0_beta5-r4.ebuild
virtual/alsa"
In other words, development-sources will provide virtual/alsa only if the use
flag is set when it is emerged. mm-sources, however, will provide virtual/
alsa regardless. Which is the correct behaviour?
Personally, I think mm-sources is the better option. The reason being if a
user decides to use alsa after emerging development-sources by adding alsa to
the use flags, portage will see no virtual/alsa and try and pull in
alsa-driver.
Any opinions before I post a bug?
Regards,
Jason
