Anything that would enable us to document with more than a few words, which is what we're practically limited to with the current format of use.desc, would help. The currently available documentation on USE flags is clearly insufficient, maybe not for you and me and other devs, but for the majority of our users. Note that this is not the same as optionally adding more specific documentation on a global flag in the metadata.xml of a package. > and get rid of the stupid separation of "local" and "global" flags Good idea. How do you plan to cope with the (currently) local USE flag conflicts though ? Denis. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
