[gentoo-dev] Stable sys-devel/gcc USE flag changes WAS: [gentoo-commits] gentoo-x86 commit in eclass: ChangeLog toolchain.eclass

[Michael Weber]

Hi folks,

this commit changes the set of USE flags on the just stabled gcc-4.6,
running a huge number into an rebuild of an freshly updated package.
(emerge --newuse recaclulates from "go disabled" to "go missing")

Wouldn't it be possible to
a) refrain from this change (really, who has USE=go turned on?)
b) handle this with package.use.mask,
c) figure it out before stabilization

I see the point in nobody beeing perfect, but these recurring
effect-less rebuilds of widespread base packages set me up.

Imho, editing /var/db/pkg/sys-devel/gcc-4.6.3/USE is not a recipe to be
carried out to the user. But can we do stuff like this in profile
updates? Without hurting system with USE=go activated, which need
actually need the recompile.

my 2 cents

   Michael
