Description Toralf Förster gentoo-dev 2005-09-12 06:46:54 UTC 
If I defined 2 use flags for the package www-servers/tomcat-5.0.27-r6
portage ignores the correct use flag "doc", if the other flag is wrong
("examples") is not used in the ebuild:

n22 /opt/tomcat5 # grep tomcat /etc/portage/package.use
www-servers/tomcat              doc
#www-servers/tomcat             examples
n22 /opt/tomcat5 # emerge -pv tomcat

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild   R   ] www-servers/tomcat-5.0.27-r6  +doc -jikes 0 kB

The second flag doesn't have to be invalid. If the atom in the second line is the
same as in the first line, it overwrites the first.
Comment 2 Toralf Förster gentoo-dev 2005-09-12 07:38:07 UTC 
Ough, so I have to specify all use flags at one line ?
Comment 3 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2005-09-12 07:41:24 UTC 
yes, as the manpage says
