Subject: [gentoo-python] [PATCH] Introduce PYTHON_REQUIRED_USE variable, utilize it in distutils-r1 by default

1 I think this is the safe/conservative method of implementing a
2 required-use check in the -r1 eclasses.
3
4 Just like with PYTHON_DEPS, we leave it to the ebuild author to
5 utilize the value by adding it to REQUIRED_USE. I will certainly
6 assist in the mass-update that will be necessary to implement this in
7 existing ebuilds. This does not need to be done immediately.

9 The PYTHON_REQUIRED_USE name may cause a bit of confusion with the
10 PYTHON_REQ_USE variable, but I think the latter was a poor naming
11 choice to begin with.
