1) Leftover disable comment and instruction in the ebuild: # btpclient disabled because we don't have ell library in the tree econf \ ... --disable-btpclient \ ... $(multilib_native_use_enable btpclient) \ 2) btpclient doesn't get installed because it is added to noinst_PROGRAMS as e.g. btmgmt which already has a dobin in the ebuild (multilib_is_native_abi). 3) Would be great to understand why the btpclient USE flag is enabled by default. https://bugs.gentoo.org/657616#c5
I found https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-bluetooth/msg73174.html for what BTP client is about, and it seems only a testing thing. Having it default enabled sounds rather wrong to me then.
