Description Craig Tong 2022-10-20 12:45:18 UTC
As of 6.2.0 Qwt includes and supersedes QwtPolar. 

In order to build the polar components as part of the library, the library requires QWT_CONFIG += QwtPolar before being built.

This can probably just be added to the ebuild as use flag in the same way other optional components are enabled in the library here: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/x11-libs/qwt/qwt-6.2.0-r1.ebuild#n62

There is currently no way to enable polar components as part of the existing ebuild.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Emerge x11-libs/qwt-6.2.0-r1 with any combination of useflag options
2. 
3.
Actual Results:  
None of the qwt_polar_xxx headers are installed. And the the polar components are not built into the library.

Expected Results:  
A useflag should control this behavior similar to opengl or svg options.

I've attached an example ebuild that enables the useflag for polar functionality.
