This is not, in the general case, a good idea. This will enable the |
| 12 |
static-libs USE flag for *every* package except those that have an |
| 13 |
explicit -static-libs flag specified. This will populate /usr/lib |
| 14 |
and /lib with a plethora of *.a files that will never be used. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
The static-libs USE flag should only be enabled on a case-by-case |
| 17 |
basis, by specifying the package(s) in /etc/portage/package.use. |
