I do not know much about mysql, but looking at the latest ebuild it |
18 |
seems that it does not look for a doc USE flag. You will have to |
19 |
manually change the ebuild to --with-docs. Gentoo's ebuild howto will |
20 |
explain you how to do that. |

About the --with-big-tables and --without-big-tables, this kind of |
22 |
behaviour is usual. There is some logic behind the choice of which |
23 |
option will be used, and portage makes use of that. Usually you can |
24 |
safely assume portage has already figured that out for you; and in this |
25 |
case it checks for the big-tables USE flag to do so. |
