Description Jason Mours 2013-07-28 03:19:39 UTC 
Going through my portage.use in system, and I was wondering if X-Org could offer a "llvm" USE flag... so I could (-llvm) disable it. I've come along way with my gcc and I (-llvm) disabled it in Mesa awhile ago.

Reproducible: Always

What is the purpose of adding this USE flag? xorg-server doesn't seem to use llvm at all, so that would certainly be the wrong ebuild to introduce USE=llvm into.

I could have sworn that xorg-server is what pulled llvm into my system... I know that --depclean doesn't cite it as a dependency, so maybe I'm wrong. I'll find another machine to stage and see if it pulls it in.
