Based on the following -dev thread: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.devel/31939 This is not acceptable behavior.. it should probably just be moved to pkg_config, but I'm not sure if this will break anything.
Let's get the facts right. The ebuild isn't interactive. The webapp-config part of the installation is. Use the USE flag. That's what it's there for. Moving things into pkg_config won't work, as portage is not aware of your vhosts.
No. A use flag should not determine whether or not a package has an interactive config. Especially a non-default use flag. The only place interativity is allowed is pkg_test and pkg_config Reopening..
Very well. Please provide a patch that replicates the functionality of the reconfig script in pkg_test or pkg_config.
Didn't think so. The reconfig hook is no longer interactive, enjoy.
