I can reproduce this with versions up to 8.6.1.902.

There seems to be a conflict between the minimal and doc use flags.

USE=minimal sets BuildClients to NO in xc/config/cf/host.def
USe=doc says to BuildSpecsDocs.

However, cxpm and its documentation is build by a Makefile in 
xc/programs/cxpm, which is only generated if BuildServersOnly || !BuildClients.

This is pretty tricky. We could either have minimal override doc and
not build the clients and their documentation if minimal is set, or vice versa. Or we could always build the clients, and remove them in src_install
if minimal is set.

"However, cxpm and its documentation is build by a Makefile in 
xc/programs/cxpm, which is only generated if BuildServersOnly || !BuildClients."

should have been "... is _not_ generated if BuildServersOnly || !BuildClients."

Uh, logic... ;)

I can't even imagine how you got the idea of building minimally with doc,
they're completely contradictory.

Same problem here with 6.8.2-r1. It fails to build with
USE="minimal doc", USE="minimal -doc",
it builds with
USE="-minimal doc".

I can try other combinations if needed. And I'm nearly sure, that it fails to 
build with minimal, both if doc is set and if -doc is set. I'll try 
USE="miminal -doc" again, tonight.

Sorry, my fault, i don't know what i did wrong last time.

Is builds with "minimal -doc"

Due to their contradictory nature, should a flag block be set up here or do we
want these flags to work side-by-side?

A block is probably a good idea.

I'm assuming this would apply to all builds in the tree.  I believe adding
`confutils_use_conflict "doc" "minimal"` in src_unpack would set up the block. 
Although the idea in #1 is a valid one, I agree with Donnie in that building
doc and minimal is kinda contradictory...

Donnie, obviously it's a very simple edit but if you'd like I can make the
edits and post the ebuilds here, it's your call.

heh, confutils isn't so useful if you don't want to add random stuff to IUSE:
IUSE="$IUSE sharedext"

This is on the inclusion list, so it'll happen soon enough. But it's not as if this is a common use case, so it's not top priority.

Fixed in 6.8.2-r2 and 6.8.99.5. Thanks!
