Looks really nice. I'm not sure if it changes the situation very much, |
| 23 |
but I'm not too worried to start with. It _does_ encourage the user to |
| 24 |
modify the flags per package which is something I'd only do in special |
| 25 |
cases. What's really important to me in these cases is that when I |
| 26 |
`emerge -u otherpackage', or `emerge -u world' and thereby upgrading |
| 27 |
otherpackage, portage must _remember_ the USE flags I originally used |
| 28 |
to emerge otherpackage. Otherwise I may suddenly find myself without |
| 29 |
CGI support one day and the system will be broken. |
