net-irc/smuxi-0.8 ebuild does not have a twitter USE-flag available, while ./configure has the option to disable twitter support as evidenced by the FAQ on Smuxi's website. Please modify the ebuild in the portage tree to include a twitter USE-flag for smuxi. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. equery u smuxi 2. Notice the absence of a twitter USE-flag in the ebuild. 3. Go to http://www.smuxi.org/ezfaq/show/smuxi?faq_id=5 4. Notice the availability of a twitter USE-flag in ./configure Actual Results: net-irc/smuxi-0.8 ebuild does not have a twitter USE-flag, meaning I can't disable this component of the program. Expected Results: net-irc/smuxi-0.8 ebuild should have had the option to disable twitter support through a USE-flag. xyzxyzxyz@xyzxyzxyz ~ $ equery u smuxi [ Legend : U - final flag setting for installation] [ : I - package is installed with flag ] [ Colors : set, unset ] * Found these USE flags for net-irc/smuxi-0.8: U I - - debug : Enable extra debug codepaths, like asserts and extra output. If you want to get meaningful backtraces see http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml + + gnome : Adds GNOME support + + libnotify : Enable desktop notification support -------------- http://www.smuxi.org/ezfaq/show/smuxi?faq_id=5 Remove Twitter support --engine-twitter-engine=no
Enabling/disabling twitter (the same for xmpp and others) won't save any additional dependency and will have a few gain at compile time. I see no reason and no real gain on adding a USE flag for every switch :-|
