There isn't an auto-fix to my knowledge, other than setting the flag |
| 22 |
globally in make.conf. At heart ABI_X86 is a USE flag and follows all |
| 23 |
the rules of USE flags - you set them globally or per-package. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Do you have an automagic method to enable mysql support for postfix in |
| 26 |
one step that will set all needed USE? Mo? Well, there isn't one for |
| 27 |
ABX_X86 either. You set the flag on for the 32 bit apps you have, and |
| 28 |
follow the chain of incompatible USE all the way to the end. It's a |
| 29 |
major pain in the butt. |
