Created attachment 411970 [details] config.log I'm trying to build x11-libs/vte-0.40.2 with the crypt useflag disabled but it fails during the configure phase: configure:14307: error: Package requirements (glib-2.0 >= 2.40.0 gobject-2.0 pango >= 1.22.0 gtk+-3.0 >= 3.8.0 gobject-2.0 gio-2.0 gio-unix-2.0 zlib gnutls >= 3.2.0) were not met: No package 'gnutls' found This is the configure command used: $ ./configure --prefix=/usr --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datad ir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --disable-dependency-tracking --disable-silent-rules --libdir=/usr/lib64 --docdir=/us r/share/doc/vte-0.40.2 --disable-maintainer-mode --disable-gtk-doc --disable-deprecation --disable-test-application --disable-static --disable -debug --disable-glade-catalogue --disable-gnutls --enable-introspection --disable-vala As you can see, gnutls support seems to be disabled but in fact it's not using the proper syntax: --without-gnutls This is an excerpt of configure: Optional Packages: --with-PACKAGE[=ARG] use PACKAGE [ARG=yes] --without-PACKAGE do not use PACKAGE (same as --with-PACKAGE=no) --with-pic[=PKGS] try to use only PIC/non-PIC objects [default=use both] --with-gnu-ld assume the C compiler uses GNU ld [default=no] --with-sysroot=DIR Search for dependent libraries within DIR (or the compiler's sysroot if not specified). --without-gnutls Disable gnutls support I guess the proper solution would be to use "use_with" instead of "use_enable" when dealing with "crypt".
