Hi all,
Currently we have 7 packages defining the efi flag and an additional 2
defining the uefi flag. These flags do the same thing, add support for
(U)EFI booting. I therefore propose we introduce efi as a new global
flag and later rename the uefi flag to efi in sys-apps/fwupd and
sys-apps/ipmicfg.
I don't have a strong preference between the efi or uefi flags, but
since a majority of the packages has chosen efi I suggest we go with that.
Best regards,
Andrew
