Just had an idea for a new USE flag. As a companion to the 'doc' USE | |

flag(which installs extra documentation), how about a USE flag which | |

inhibits/any/ documentation. This would be highly handy for trimming | |

down a system such as a server or router which will never have a warm | |

What we want is just a variable in make.conf |
| 14 |
INSTALL_MASK="/usr/share/doc /usr/share/man /usr/share/info" |
| 15 |

which would mean that files in those dirs will not get installed. In the |
| 17 |
meantime you could create a small wrapper for emerge that just removes all |
| 18 |
the files from thos directories. |
