Oh, it's been a while since I read those docs. Please read the text above C= ode=20 Listing 5. There are occasions where even I use USE=3D on the command line= =20 because I really want the change to be very temporary. When we on the maili= ng=20 list tell users to never do that it's because users mostly don't want it to= =20 be that temporary. Especially if they find this difference confusing... ;) =2D-=20 Bo Andresen --nextPart2035451.HnxTf7cy0T Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBFAuzG8/kKEzmwNNoRAitMAKDEOVufrFKNFrwzXlqWgmJzGAHgfwCgqhYs bGBIcg5zVhOAuX1urJRwcII= =0tEH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart2035451.HnxTf7cy0T-- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
