Do we really want developers to just add USE-flags by themselfs? I'd |
| 19 |
rather see that if a developer needs a new USE-flag he sends an email |
| 20 |
to the list requesting that USE-flag (or perhaps directly to Drobbins |
| 21 |
or Achim). This way we'll have a more controlled way of adding |
| 22 |
USE-flags and the USE-flag and a description can be added where it |
| 23 |
should be. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
I do however see a really good use for your script and that is being |
| 26 |
able to produce a list of which packages uses which USE-flags. This |
| 27 |
can be a nice feature for users unsure of what will happend if they |
| 28 |
enable a USE-flag. |
