GZDoom version 4.7.0 was released on September 22, 2021: https://github.com/coelckers/gzdoom/releases/tag/g4.7.0 The current gzdoom ebuild is missing support for the HAVE_GLES2 and HAVE_VULKAN options; it would be nice to include support for those in this version bump. In addition, the release announcement mentions that some sort of telemetry was enabled in this build. I briefly skimmed the CMakeList changes for this release, but did't see an obvious option to disable this telemetry so this version bump may need a custom patch to allow users to disable the telemetry. It looks like this version bump will require a little extra time devoted to tracking down the telemetry code. I'll be preoccupied this October, so probably in November I can look into this. Otherwise, if anyone wants to take a stab at it sooner I'll gladly provide a review for your changes.
Looks like the following commit is where the survey is enabled: https://github.com/coelckers/gzdoom/commit/569517c2debe8791a92bc62837f45b519e50b0a0 So defining the NO_SEND_STATS preprocessor define should disable the survey code.
I personally don't mind telemetry on this project, so a USE flag would be good.
I agree, a USE flag would be the best option here and should be trivial now that we know a simple preprocessor define can toggle the code. I add the 'telemetry' USE flag then when I submit this version bump.
