I never said that it was... I just said to make sure to check... ;] Of course, I agree with everyone else that this shouldn't be a USE flag, at all. My personal opinion is that we install the logrotate.d files no matter what, and users can INSTALL_MASK it if they don't want it. After all, is the file installed by default upstream? If so, then why are we hiding it behind a USE flag in the first place? -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering - Strategic Lead/QA Manager Games - Developer Gentoo Linux
