Just had an idea for a new USE flag. As a companion to the 'doc' USE | |

flag(which installs extra documentation), how about a USE flag which | |

down a system such as a server or router which will never have a warm | |

What we want is just a variable in make.conf |

INSTALL_MASK="/usr/share/doc /usr/share/man /usr/share/info" |

which would mean that files in those dirs will not get installed. In the |
17 |
meantime you could create a small wrapper for emerge that just removes all |
18 |
the files from thos directories. |
