Re: [gentoo-user] Undocumented USE flags

2003-11-25 Thread Frank Schäfer 
Thanks a lot.

 In  /etc/make.conf  is written:
 # The available list of use flags with descriptions is in your portage tree.
 # Use 'less' to view them:  -- less /usr/portage/profiles/use.desc --

I assumed, that the ling on the gentoo website is more up to date (I
don't let etc-update override my make.conf)

Not at all; for the gatos or sdk flags from xfree-4.3.0 or the
mozxmlterm flag from mozilla aren't described neither on the web nor
in use.desc :(

They seem to be package specific. Now where to put them, make.conf,
ebuild ...?

 Btw.: Is there a possibility to only download all the packages reported
 by ``emerge -p'' and then (somewhen) do the actually ``emerge -De'' (?)
 offline?
   
 
 energe -f
 or  --fetchonly

Already done this ``emerge -Def'' :)

Thanks onesmore
Frank

In the same directory as above is use.local.desc. Check there.

Put them in make.conf as per usual.

 I'd be more than happy to tell you what they do to the ebuild process off
 list.

Perhaps adding the relevant use flags and their effect on package
descriptions to the online package database would be a good idea.

Cheers,
