No, I meant one USE flag, called "tools", that builds and installs all or |
| 12 |
none of them. Unless they have external dependencies, or extraordinary |
| 13 |
build times, or licensing issues, then I can't see a situation where someone |
| 14 |
would want or need to pick and choose like this. If you disagree then I |
| 15 |
suppose an expanded variable is an improvement, though I don't like them |
| 16 |
myself. |

Kudos on the USE flag descriptions in any case. Very informative. |
