1 Hi,
2
3 this is currently used by 4 packages but there are many more to come,
4 especially in the dev-qt/* and kde-*/* categories where 'gles2' is being
5 renamed to 'gles2-only' where appropriate. Its purpose and description is
6 really the same everywhere.

8 Description: "Use GLES 2.0 or later instead of full OpenGL"

10 See also:
11 - USE={egl,gles{,1,2,3}} flags are a total mess [1]
12 - [gentoo-dev] Addressing split usage of USE=gles[123] [2]
13 - PRs in prepration for gentoo.git [3], kde.git [4] and qt.git [5]

15 I plan to introduce this real soon, coinciding the necessary revbumps with
16 upcoming/in-preparation Qt 5.14.2 and KDE Plasma 5.18.4 version bumps.
