The utf8 use flag of dev-db/mysql was removed 6 months ago so this is incorrect or obsolete. 2,5 months ago a latin1 use flag was added to >=mysql-4.1. So I don't really know if this should be entirely removed or if it should warn if the latin1 use flag is not set for >=mysql-4.1... # grep utf8 -A 2 mythtv-0.19_p10505.ebuild if built_with_use dev-db/mysql utf8; then echo ewarn "Your MySQL installation on this machine most likely won't work" ewarn "because you compiled it with USE=utf8. Either use another mysql" ewarn "server (on another machine) or recompile MySQL without utf8." echo fi This applies to both mythtv ebuilds in the tree.
good eye... I'll fix it.
Fixed. (sorry it took so long)
