Description Maxim Kammerer 2012-03-08 03:10:49 UTC
Despite what ./configure --help says:

  --enable-tracing        enable verbose tracing code

tracing is actually enabled by default (run "grep -r PLY_ENABLE_TRACING" after running ./configure).

I suggest splitting that option into USE=debug.

In addition, src/client/plymouth.c explicitly searches for "plymouth:debug", although src/main.c says:

  /* we now use plymouth.argument for kernel commandline arguments.
   * It used to be plymouth:argument. This bit just rewrites all : to be .
   */

Fixed as suggested. No revbump, because -N to emerge should handle this.
