as one of the new sane features of the next portage-2.1_pre release, we're
looking to cut out use.defaults support
existing stable users wont be affected as the 2.0.x versions will continue to
carry support for this, but some of you stable users may notice some USE
flags suddenly "disappearing"

Could you add a USE_ORDER without "auto" to /etc/make.globals for that
release, please, or alternatively provide s
Can we get this on the website/announce? I agree that auto-use is the
suck and that it needs to die a long excrutiating death, but I think a
lot of users will be like wtf when 2.1 hits stable and --newuse turns up
a massive crapload of packages.
Whether this announced now, or when portage-2.1

Could we include a simple script to add these USE to the users make.conf
before they upgrade to 2.1. Witho

I see this as a good and bad thing. Good in one hand that less autojunk
would be enabled like python/perl bindings not b

No, it's bad. It's another thing that makes correct dependency
resolution impossible.

IMHO a lot of the auto-use stuff that is "mis-used" is moreso what IUSE
defaults is for. I have a crappy patch for IUSE defaults that I may try
to work on so that it can be merged in the 2.1/2.2 branch. I realize
that this is probably a bit far off, but will hopefully improve the
situation.
