4 Hello all,
5 After some discussion on good ways to communicate optional
6 dependencies to users, I was shown the optfeature() function in
7 net-misc/netctl. Gentoo contributor Andrew Hamilton and I came up with
8 a cleaned up and expanded version of it, and I would like to add it to
9 eutils.eclass to provide a standard way of notifying users of optional
10 dependencies. The patch to eutils.eclass is attached.
