Description Oliver Regenfelder 2005-09-03 07:18:53 UTC
Hi,

doing some emerging and USE FLAG changes on my box I found the following

pc_001 cross-avr # grep physfs /usr/portage/profiles/use.local.desc 
games-fps/duke3d:nophysfs - Disables support for physfs
media-libs/sdl-sound:physfs - Enable physfs support

I think it is no good having two useflags for the same decission just
use one of them physfs EXOR nophysfs (I would go for physfs, as most use flags
work the "name it to include it" way).

mfg

Oliver

P.S.: I didn't know exactly where to but this bug, so hopefully it didn't went

Right. Unfortunately we don't have a restrictive policy against stupid (no*) use
flags, though. :(
Comment 2 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2005-09-03 12:17:19 UTC
this is due to the behavior of physfs in different packages

we prefer it in some but not in others
