It's "nice" to invent new use flags affecting Qt stuff without contacting
those who care for Qt.
2) A package requires either Qt3 or Qt4 (both not both?...such as
x11-libs/qwt-5).
qt3 - enable optional qt3 support
qt4 - enable optional qt4 support
That will be a mess to support in the long run. Let's go with that what works
better, prefer the latest version and be fine with it. I do agree with Caleb
to use the qt use flag for the latest supported version and in cases it is
really necessary to have an additional qt3 use flag.
Sounds like:
qt - GLOBAL use flag that causes the package to build against the good version
for that package.
qt3, qt4... - LOCAL use flags to build against specific versions of
qt when it makes sense on a per-package basis and when it's deemed to
be reasonable by the package maintainer. Easy to keep track of because
they'd all be in use.local.desc.
