The reason I question this is the prior discussions that we've had on a |
| 16 |
future FEATURES="noman noinfo nodoc" thingy. Or was that a USE flag |
| 17 |
thing. Either way, it seemed as though man, info and docs were going to |
| 18 |
become optional. In that sense, then, I'd rather make this a USE based |
| 19 |
post-install to glibc, coreutils etc etc |
