The bashcompinit function has been installed with zsh for just under a year. I think it would be worthwile (in spite of what Ciaran says) to use a || RDEPEND on zsh in bash-completion, and to provide an "if has_version ; then ; einfo ; fi" block for it in the pkg_postinst(). No version needs to be specified in the dependency; all zsh versions in the tree include bashcompinit. The einfo could look something like this: "If you are interested in using the provided bash completion functions with zsh, valuable tips on the effective use of bashcompinit are available: http://www.zsh.org/mla/workers/2003/msg00046.html http://zshwiki.org/ZshSwitchingTo" Thanks.
I didn't say it was a bad idea, I said having a USE flag for it would be a bad idea.
Thanks Aaron.
