1 HI All,
2
3 When you add a new use flag that pulls in a binary only package for a
4 particular arch, please mask that useflag on all arches that cannot
5 support it (or create a bug to get it done before the new use flag is
6 introduced into the live tree).
7
8 As a side note, all non-x86 arches will want to mask fdftk as it's now in
9 use by the ~arch versions of php and mod_php.
