Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
In a profile's default USE flags I'd prefer to see only those enabled, |
| 4 |
that do not pull in more dependencies (to download) then found in |
| 5 |
'system' anyway. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
Samples of what I mean: |
| 8 |
'python': We cannot do anything without python: keep it enabled. |
| 9 |
'zlib': Even if zlib is not USEd, it is part of 'system': keep enabled. |
| 10 |
'berkdb': If not USEd, sys-libs/db is not needed: disable by default. |
| 11 |
'unicode': does not pull in anything, but IMO is state of the art ? |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
For 'fortran', this pulls in dev-libs/gmp and dev-libs/mpfr, so I'd like |
| 14 |
to see it disabled by default. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
As a result, I'd say to have these use flags (on linux) as default: |
| 17 |
ncurses: required by bash |
| 18 |
python: required by portage |
| 19 |
ssl: required by openssh (pulled in by virtual/ssh on linux) |
| 20 |
readline: required by baselayoyt-prefix (why?) |
| 21 |
zlib: required by openssh |
| 22 |
unicode: nice to have without additional dependencies |
| 23 |
more ? |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Thoughts ? |
