I don't really like the idea of this without a companion patch that provides |
8 |
some way to get a list of relevant env vars and their possible settings to |
9 |
the user without having to look at the ebuild. The list of possiblities |
10 |
could live in use.desc or a similar file, but at minimum the list of vars |
11 |
needs to be provided. |

Another patch is also required that will allow disabling of the QA check on |
14 |
certain vars, preferably defined in a file in the tree similar to |
15 |
info_vars. This would be used for vars such as USERLAND which are profile |
16 |
defined. |

In other words, don't kill the QA check without addressing the issue that |
19 |
the QA check is warning about. ;) |
