you're complaining about the existence of use.defaults if you want it gone, start a thread on gentoo-dev removing entries merely hides the problem, it doesnt fix anything (In reply to comment #1) > you're complaining about the existence of use.defaults Bingo... :=) > if you want it gone, start a thread on gentoo-dev OK, fair enough... > removing entries merely hides the problem, it doesnt fix anything Not exactly what I am requesting. This bug is about adding more fuel to a feature which is IMHO broken by design. What is the benefit from adding more stuff there and confusing users with mysteriously appearing USE flags? *** Bug 120196 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
