Hello. |

I'm trying to build a LiveCD for my own use. I'd like to be able |
| 4 |
to specify the USE flags for the different packages individually. |
| 5 |
On the archives, I found Chris' message from 2007-03-28 at |

| Well, package.use doesn't work how you think it should in catalyst. |
| 10 |
| It's a known bug, but one that won't likely be fixed for some time. |
| 11 |
| Basically, if you use $target/use, then it will ignore package.use |
| 12 |
| settings. You should only use package.use when deviating from the |
| 13 |
| profile defaults for a package, not when setting your own USE. You'll |
| 14 |
| need to set python globally. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Well - I don't use $target/use in my stage1.spec file. I set portage_confdir |
| 17 |
to some directory containing a package.use file. But settings in that |
| 18 |
file seem to be ignored (eg. I set net-wireless/wpa_supplicant madwifi, |
| 19 |
but while running "sudo catalyst -v -f |
| 20 |
/data/Bauen/catalyst/livecd-stage1_template-ohne-use.spec" |
| 21 |
I see, that wpa_supplicant would be build with -madwifi. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Why is the package.use ignored? I'm using catalyst-2.0.5_pre4 on |
| 24 |
a otherwise ~x86 system. |
| 25 |

This is the contents of the portage_confdir: |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
$ ls -la /data/Bauen/catalyst/etc/portage |
