We need an entry in /usr/portage/profiles/use.local.desc to explain what the bindist flag actually does for this package. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: equery u thunderbird (with >=app-portage/gentoolkit-0.3) Actual Results: * Found these USE flags for mail-client/thunderbird-3.1.10: U I [...] - - bindist : Flag to enable or disable options for prebuilt (GRP) packages (eg. due to licensing issues) [...] Expected Results: An explanation that (apparently) enabling bindist disables "official branding".
