It's very unreliable and should be masked atm. It has caused me to misconfigure 3 of my computers, and added alot of work for me to do. ufed seems to work fine and I have since switched over. Thank You. dams@gentoo.org 2006-01-30 13:52:52 0000 can you give me more information? which version do you use, which USE flag is badly handled ? thanks avuton@gmail.com 2006-01-30 13:56:20 0000 I've tried 0.23.0 and 0.24.0 and found both php and flac (among others, which I can't remember) were both marked as enabled and in reality they were disabled. (I was wondering for the longest time why oggenc's flac plugin wasn't working!) dams@gentoo.org 2006-01-30 15:20:40 0000 Created an attachment (id=78531) patch to correctly expand virtual package names This patch has been created on 0.25.1, but can be applied to 0.24.0 too. dams@gentoo.org 2006-01-30 15:23:28 0000 added patch regarding virtuals. This might be one part of the solution : some flags in use.defaults are referring to virtuals, but I forgot to expand the virtuals to the actually installed package. This caused some false negatives : flags were seen as _not_ set where they were set. Could you apply and test? On my system, ufed results and profuse are exactly the same, with the path applied. Thanks for your feedback truedfx@gentoo.org 2006-01-30 23:06:51 0000 > some flags in use.defaults portage 2.1* doesn't use use.defaults anymore; if profuse does use it (and it seems so), there's the problem :) dams@gentoo.org 2006-01-31 04:30:15 0000 Avuton, could you check profuse-0.25.2 ? It includes use.defaults fix, and disable use.defaults support for portage > 2.0.54 (which version of portage do you actually use ?) avuton@gmail.com 2006-01-31 12:25:20 0000 Everything appears to be fixed now! Thanks :), Although I must request that old versions be removed, and mark the new one stable ASAP, otherwise what happened to me could happen elsewhere. Once again, thanks. fuzzyray@gentoo.org 2006-02-14 11:41:33 0000 profuse-0.25.2 is not working correctly with portage-2.0.54 as that version of portage is still using the use.defaults file. As a quick test, I emerged dev-libs/gmp which turns on the gmp USE flag. When I started profuse-0.25.2, it did not show the flag as set. Here is my emerge info on the relevant system.
