If you want libcanberra and therefore you must have USE="gtk", but you do not |
| 26 |
want to have any other packages compiled with the gtk USE flag, you can define |
| 27 |
it only for the package in question by adding a line in |
| 28 |
/etc/portage/package.use like so: |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
media-libs/libcanberra gtk -oss |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
to e.g. enable the gtk and disable the oss flags. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
To see whether a flag has been set or not and relevant information about it, |
| 35 |
run: |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
euse -i <flag> |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
For libcanberra it shows: |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
[- cD ] gtk (media-libs/libcanberra): |
| 42 |
Enables building of gtk+ helper library, gtk+ runtime sound effects and the |
| 43 |
canberra-gtk-play utility. To enable the gtk+ sound effects add canberra-gtk- |
| 44 |
module to the colon separated list of modules in the GTK_MODULES environment |
| 45 |
variable. |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
Use option -I to see which packages have been installed using a particular |
| 48 |
flag. Have a look in man euse to decipher the symbols. |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
To see all the flags for a particular package after it has been installed run: |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
equery uses libcanberra |
