Description Boris Tschirschwitz 2003-09-27 18:01:06 UTC

There's quite a number of ebuilds that compile fine if one doesn't request extra
documentation with the 'doc' USE flag.
However, once 'doc' is set, the build process breaks sometime during the
generation of the extra documentation.
If wanted I could start a list of broken ebuilds, but I submit this bug mostly
to make a suggestion:

+++ It would be A Good Thing if ebuilds were developed with enabled 'doc' USE
+++ flag.


Reproducible: Always
