As discussed in gentoo-dev (see URL): Please keep use.local.desc sorted, using category/package/flag as primary/secondary/tertiary sort keys.
Here is an example from CVS revision 1.3700, dev-db/mysql is interspersed with flags from other packages: dev-db/mysql:big-tables - Make tables contain up to 1.844E+19 rows dev-db/mysql:cluster - Add support for NDB clustering. dev-db/mysql-community:big-tables - Make tables contain up to 1.844E+19 rows dev-db/mysql-community:cluster - Add support for NDB clustering. dev-db/mysql-community:embedded - Build embedded server (libmysqld) dev-db/mysql-community:extraengine - Add support for alternative storage engines. dev-db/mysql-community:latin1 - Use LATIN1 encoding instead of UTF8. dev-db/mysql-community:max-idx-128 - Raise the max index per table limit from 64 to 128 dev-db/mysql-community:minimal - Install client programs only, no server dev-db/mysql-community:pbxt - Add experimental support for pbxt storage engine dev-db/mysql:embedded - Build embedded server (libmysqld) dev-db/mysql:extraengine - Add support for alternative storage engines. dev-db/mysql-gui-tools:administrator - Build and install MySQL Administrator dev-db/mysql-gui-tools:query-browser - Build and install MySQL Query Browser dev-db/mysql-gui-tools:workbench - Build and install MySQL Workbench dev-db/mysql:latin1 - Use LATIN1 encoding instead of UTF8. dev-db/mysql:max-idx-128 - Raise the max index per table limit from 64 to 128 dev-db/mysql:minimal - Install client programs only, no server dev-db/mysql:raid - deprecated option, removed in the 5.0 series
It's actually my script that's doing the sorting...
Looks like this is no longer an issue. Thanks.
