I searched the -dev mailing list and only found references to the flag |
32 |
being enabled on a lot of packages. It appears to be a Gnome thing but |
33 |
don't quote me on it. Is it possible that it is enable by default |
34 |
whether it is set or not? There was talk of making it on in the profile |
35 |
instead of make.conf. |
36 |
|
37 |
I would do a emerge -pv <package that uses the flag> and see if it shows |
38 |
up there. If it is a small package, compile it then see if it is built |
39 |
in or not. If it is, then they have it turned on somewhere. This is a |
40 |
bug report that you can read on too. |
