Subject: [gentoo-user] Where do these use flags come from?
Date: Mon, 27 Feb 2006 03:00:13 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200602270300.18842.bo.andresen@gmail.com> (raw)
I decided I wanted to remove the ipv6 use flag which I have had enabled in
make.conf for quite a while but never really been on a ipv6 network and don't
suspect I will in the near future. When upgrading firefox I noted it has that
use flag and decided I want to know what it actually does. Only, I cannot
find it anywhere in the ebuilds! So where does it come from and what
*exactly* does it do?
~ # emerge -uvp mozilla-firefox
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild U ] www-client/mozilla-firefox-1.5.0.1-r2 [1.5.0.1-r1] USE="java
mozdevelop xprint -debug -gnome -ipv6* -xinerama" 33 kB
Total size of downloads: 33 kB
~ # grep USE /usr/portage/www-client/mozilla-firefox/*.ebuild
/usr/portage/www-client/mozilla-firefox/mozilla-firefox-1.0.7-r4.ebuild:IUSE="gnome
java mozdevelop mozsvg mozcalendar"

[ Found these USE variables for www-client/mozilla-firefox-1.5.0.1-r1 ]
U I
- - debug : Tells configure and the makefiles to build for debugging.
Effects vary across packages, but generally it will at least add -g to
CFLAGS. Remember to set FEATURES=nostrip too
- - gnome : Adds GNOME support
- + ipv6 : Adds support for IP version 6
+ + java : Adds support for Java
+ + mozdevelop : Enable features for web developers (e.g. Venkman)
- - xinerama : Add support for the xinerama X11 extension, which allows you
to stretch your display across multiple monitors
+ + xprint : Support for xprint, http://www.mozilla.org/projects/xprint/
