Description Jiri Tyr 2005-12-13 03:31:30 UTC 
I woult like to have be able to emerge net-www/mod_fastcgi with dev-perl/FCGI
support. Just add "perl" USE flag to the ebuild for net-www/mod_fastcgi.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -av net-www/mod_fastcgi
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Installation of the net-www/mod_fastcgi without the dev-perl/FCGI support.

Expected Results:  
USE="perl" emerge -av net-www/mod_fastcgi
Installation of the net-www/mod_fastcgi with the dev-perl/FCGI support.

Uhm? What should that use flag do? We don't add use flags just to emerge another
ebuild. If that's the case, then emerge dev-perl/FCGI yourself. Please, explain
better what are you requesting.

I want to use net-www/mod_fastcgi in Apache2 but if I want to use it with Perl,
I have to emerge dev-perl/FCGI manually. So why do not add "perl" USE flag to
the net-www/mod_fastcgi and do that in once?

If do you think that it is absurdity, just delete this bug report, but I think
that it is good idea.

Hmmm...
Comment 4 Luca Longinotti (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-06-05 14:17:25 UTC 
"perl" USE added to net-www/mod_fastcgi, and it depends on dev-perl/FCGI.
Best regards, CHTEKK.
Comment 5 Luca Longinotti (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-06-05 14:25:37 UTC 
Bleh disregard my previous comment, we actually decided for the exact opposite: "perl" USE won't be added to mod_fastcgi.
Best regards, CHTEKK.

So, now to resolve properly.
Comment 7 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-06-05 14:33:33 UTC 
Closing WONTFIX, use flags should not be used for just adding optional stuff to (R)DEPEND without altering the actual result in any way.
