8 Sorry but, why even in_iuse function from eutils.eclass cannot be used?
9 If that is really not allowed, why we have that function in
10 eutils.eclass?
11
12 There are lots of cases in eclasses relying on things like original
13 suggested way or in_iuse from eutils.eclass and would like to clarify
14 things before going with a more complex way than original.
15
16 I already know Ciaran's opinion on this, but would like to know more
17 opinion and, most important, is this is really allowed or not and, if
18 not, we should try to migrate current eclasses to the "fixed" way if
19 there is really a way providing similar function.
