Bug 274555 – Merge gcrypt/libgcrypt USE flags

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Tristan Heaven (RETIRED) 2009-06-17 21:05:34 UTC]

local:gcrypt:net-analyzer/wireshark: Use GNU crypto library (dev-libs/libgcrypt) to decrypt SSL traffic
local:gcrypt:net-libs/libssh: Prefer dev-libs/libgcrypt over dev-libs/openssl for encryption

local:libgcrypt:media-video/vlc: Enables cryptography support via libgcrypt.
local:libgcrypt:net-libs/libssh2: Use libgcrypt for crypt

Please decide on one and switch to that.

fwiw feel free to change vlc's useflag to whatever seems more consistent/uniform.

I vote for gcrypt. Only 6 global USE flags start with lib, while there are 13 without lib prefix which still enabled dependency on libUSE. Compare:

egrep '^lib' use.desc
vs.
egrep -i '(^[^ ]*) .*lib\1' use.desc 

Same situation for local USE flags:

egrep ':lib' use.local.desc
vs.
egrep -i '^[^:]*:([^ ]*) .*lib\1' use.local.desc

Besides this I don't care. But more consistency is better. If there will be no objections I'll commit changes soon.

Nobody objected. vls, libssh2 done. FIXED.
