This moring I woke up, sat down and found that I missed a tool that could |
| 2 |
help me (and possibly others) to keep track of what USE-flags I should |
| 3 |
enable or disable in /etc/make.conf. Lately I've been setting up quite a |
| 4 |
few gentoo-boxes and from my point of view it is a bit more work than |
| 5 |
neccessary to have three -3- windows open in order to 1) know what each |
| 6 |
USE-flags does (or is intended to do) 2) keep track of if the USE-flag is |
| 7 |
default enabled in my profile and 3) what to write in make.conf (in order |
| 8 |
to get what I want but not make duplicate entries etc.) |

Thus I wrote a perl script and an ebuild installing it, more info can be |
| 11 |
found at <url: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7484 > where also |
| 12 |
the ebuild is attaced as attachment #1 to the "bug." |

OBS: There are certain USE-flags one should NOT play with. Thus stay away |
| 20 |
from changing bootstrap, build, x86, ppc, sparc and sparc64 unless you are |
| 21 |
an experienced developer, knowing what you do and having a really good |
| 22 |
reason for doing so. :) You've hereby been warned... |
