Subject: [gentoo-dev] USE="acl" in profiles

1 There is a slight problem regarding the USE-Settings in the profiles:
2
3 GRP_STAGE23_USE="ipv6 pam tcpd readline nls ssl gpm perl python berkdb acl ncurses"
4
5 As you can see, this defines acl. Now:
6
7 USE="x86 oss apm arts avi berkdb bitmap-fonts crypt cups encode foomaticdb gdbm
8 gif gpm gtk gtk2 imlib jpeg kde gnome libg++ libwww mad mikmod motif mpeg ncurses
9 nls oggvorbis opengl pam pdflib png python qt quicktime readline sdl slang spell
10 ssl svga tcpd truetype X xml2 xmms xprint xv zlib"
11
12 This doesn't define acl.
13
14 This could break things if users don't set USE="acl" on bootstrap/emerge system.
15 Possible solutions could be to either remove acl from GRP_STAGE23_USE or add it to
16 USE. The first solution would cause everybody using acl to not be able to install without
17 any problems. Putting it into USE would cause an overhead for everybody. The overhead
18 doesn't seem to be that big, but...well...it's an overhead.
19
20 What do you think about it and how do you think this should be solved?
