Hi guys,

gnutls right now unconditionally creates the C++ bindings library; it would be nice if there was a cxx USE flag (even enabled by default if you want) that allows to disable them if not needed.

Thanks in advance,
Diego

possible - though is there a good reason to do it?
Is this going to create dependancies on use flags in other packages?

i'm not adverse to the idea - just don't have the time.

opps - didn't realise it was built into upstream. added to 2.5.4 and will do it again for 2.6.0 soon.

sorry for appearing stupid/arrogant.

upstream bug should make next versions nicer.
