+  14 Feb 2013; Sergey Popov <[e-mail]> -qiviewer-0.5.0.ebuild,
+  +qiviewer-0.5.0-r1.ebuild:
+  Revision bump: EAPI 5, drop gif and tiff USE flags, wrt bug #457604, add
+  apropriate information message into pkg_postinst instead. Drop old revision

Really, implementing those was a bad idea from my side.

Thanks. FWIW this on the tinderbox was a request to build qt-gui "-tiff -gif", which was obviously not possible.

Since qt-gui has those useflags, that obviously *is* possible.

But since this does not seem to be a matter of automagic dependencies, these useflags are indeed unnecessary here.

Sergey: now we have a pretty useless einfo message instead, which is not even being logged by default. If you are of the opinion that this issue is not obvious to the user, then please use readme.gentoo eclass for that purpose.
