"The usage of a USE flag should not control runtime dependencies when |
| 17 |
the package does not link to it. Doing so will create extra |
| 18 |
configuration for the package and re-compilation for no underlying file |
| 19 |
change on disk. This should be avoided and instead can be conveyed to |
| 20 |
the user via post install messages if needed." |
