Description Michael Rolf 2003-10-30 07:55:19 UTC

I recommend to add a new USE flag "pygtk", because "pygtk" is not "gtk" and
bluez-utils will install pygtk if gtk is set as an USE flag in make.conf.
Therefore I installed bluez-utils with env USE="-gtk" and now I have to be very
carefull with an emerge world call.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add "gtk" to USE in /etc/make.conf
2. env USE=-gtk emerge bluez-utils
3. emerge -p --update --deep world

Actual Results:  
emerge will install the pygtk package

Expected Results:  
I would like to see that emerge won't try to install pygtk

I'd say it's invalid, but I'll re-assign to python people as it's their terretory.

actually it's more to do with wireless since bluez-utils is in that herd.

anyway, i won't fix this because i think it is the correct usage of the flag.
maybe when we have per package useflag support in portage then this won't
be a problem. but adding another useflag is not the solution.
