Perhaps the use of the debug flag as well would be |
| 2 |
appropriate. According my understanding of that use flag |
| 3 |
this is a situation which would warrant or would make its |
| 4 |
use feasible. I'm just a user so take my assumptions of this |
| 5 |
use flags "use" with a grain of salt. |

If you as the developer think the debugging on Imagemagick |
| 8 |
is better then putting a einfo or something in the readme |
| 9 |
would be appropriate announcing that fact. I then as a user |
| 10 |
will hopefully either see that einfo message or read about |
| 11 |
the better debug capabilities of Imagemagick and rebuild |
| 12 |
with the command below. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
USE="debug imagemagick" emerge yourapp |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Or maybe I decide that speed is my goal so I build without |
| 17 |
debug but with libgd |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
USE="gd" emerge yourapp |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
my 2c. |
