Thanks a lot! commit ecdab33ececea00bb71688686b97fbb890de8792 Author: Matthias Maier <tamiko@gentoo.org> Date: Wed Nov 18 14:36:03 2015 -0600 app-emulation/spice: Maintenance, drop obsolete USE=client (bug #566086) - The client spicec has been removed from app-emulation/spice in favor of app-emulation/virt-viewer. Thus, remove the now obsolete keyword and associated dependencies. - Remove (already commented out) USE="static" left-overs. This ebuild does not contain any executable any more for which "static" might have made sense. Revision bump and commit straigt to stable as this is purely a cosmetic change.
