By doing so, you will be warned when something depends on it in the future. In this case you will find that net-im/pidgin[gstreamer] depends on it; thus, you will want to disable that USE flag on net-im/pidgin. -- With kind regards, Tom Wijsman (TomWij) Gentoo Developer E-mail address : tom...@gentoo.org GPG Public Key : 6D34E57D GPG Fingerprint : C165 AF18 AB4C 400B C3D2 ABF0 95B2 1FCD 6D34 E57D
