Description Anders Eriksson 2009-03-19 08:58:04 UTC 
The exmh MUA uses app-text/antiword to render word files inline, if antiword is installed. I suggest a USE flag is added to exmh.

Note: exmh always probes at runtime if antiword is on the PATH, USE-flagged or not. If an USE flag is added to exmh, it could NOT be used to make exmh NOT use an installed antiword. I'm not sure if that's a real prblem, though.

Reproducible: Always

The mail-client/exmh package was removed from the tree a couple weeks ago, marking as maintainer-wanted.

exmh no longer is in the tree, so little we can fix here, sorry
