15 Just looking at emerge --pretend after setting that I'm confused by
16 the output:
17
18 emerge -v -u -p mysql: (wrapped for mail)
19 These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
20
21 Calculating dependencies ...done!
22 [ebuild N ] dev-db/mysql-5.0.15 +berkdb -big-tables
23 -cluster -debug -doc -extraengine -minimal +perl +readline
24 (-selinux) +ssl -static -utf8 0 kB
25
26 Note that doc has the - sign and readline has +, shouldn't doc have
27 come up without minus.
28
29 Then when I actually run the emerge the compile flags are not altered
30 one whit, notice in the actual command given the compiler, the next
31 to last line shows `--without-docs'. But also there appears a
32 --without-readline (8th line down) when emerge told me in the
33 `pretend' run `+readline'.
34
35 This is getting pretty confusing
