Hi, |
2 |
|
3 |
so the thread is getting a bit long, I will just summarize the status |
4 |
|
5 |
-apm -foomaticdb -imlib -motif -xmms |
6 |
|
7 |
Those are more or less without objections |
8 |
|
9 |
-fortran - I am dropping this request, seems fortran is meant to be default |
10 |
|
11 |
-oss - apparently people are fighting this one. Flameeyes also brought up in |
12 |
IRC that this can cause arts being selected as a backend instead of oss, |
13 |
which is certainly not desirable. Also some packages might not give sound |
14 |
at all without the oss useflag. All packages with IUSE=oss need to be |
15 |
checked for this and fixed properly. Although some people think it is |
16 |
USEflagspam I am voting for an ossemu use flag here. If you want to help |
17 |
with this effort, we need to create a tracker bug and check [1] |
18 |
71 packages :) |
19 |
|
20 |
Also there came up a few more suggestions: |
21 |
|
22 |
-mikmod - This came from wolf31o2 and I do not like it. mikmod is used in |
23 |
many games and I think it gives people less hassle to have it as default. |
24 |
The intention of this request is to make use-setting easier, not harder. |
25 |
Please do not remove this flag. |
26 |
|
27 |
-gtk2 - This has been brought up by carlo. And it makes sense although not |
28 |
in the 2006.1 profile. This needs to happen in all profiles and can only |
29 |
happen once all those flags have been removed from ebuilds. So, sorry, but |
30 |
this needs more work and cannot be put in the same request. If you want to |
31 |
help for this, please have a look at [2] |
