Active and enabled are two different concepts in CDL. See http://ecos.sourceware.org/docs-latest/cdl-guide/language.properties.html Basically, the active property indicates if the option can be used. i.e. all the requirements of the option/package are fulfilled and all its parents in the hierarchy are enabled. If the property is active, you can then enable/disable it.
