Something like this would be handy. Even in FreeBSD, they have sort of |
| 2 |
an interactive questionaire thing when you build something from Ports. |
| 3 |
For example, when you try to build Samba in Ports, it brings up a text |
| 4 |
dialog with a bunch of checkboxes for all the Samba options like ACLs |
| 5 |
and LDAP support, and you check off the ones you want; obviously then it |
| 6 |
adds those to the ./configure line it uses in the Makefile. |

I know Gentoo relies on USE flags and they are all magical and stuff, |
| 9 |
but you can't have a USE flag for *everything*. |
