After discussion in #-dev I would tend to agree. For instance, a dep |
| 28 |
on app-cat/foo[flag(-)] resolves identically in portage to |
| 29 |
app-cat/foo[flag] |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
(this means btw that the '(-)' only has meaning when using a negated |
| 32 |
use dep, ie: app-cat/foo[-flag(-)] does something useful, otherwise |
| 33 |
it doesnt) |
