Bug 92795 – `euses' is a small utility written in C to look up USE flag descriptions fast

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) 2005-05-16 08:00:33 UTC]

Initially tested for x86 (i586, i686) and hppa (hppa1.1 and hppa2.0).
See 
   http://www.xs4all.nl/~rooversj/gentoo/euses-0.6.man.html
for usage info and look in http://www.xs4all.nl/~rooversj/gentoo/ [euses.*] for everything else available on this matter. The command ought to be available to all of a system's users. I suggest putting it in app-portage/euses.

New version is up at http://www.xs4all.nl/~rooversj/gentoo/euses-0.7.ebuild

Improvements include more overall sanity.

And (the source for) a simple yet easily extended PHP interface is here:

Lots of improvements. The code is actually legible now. :)

ebuild for euses 2.2

Lots of changes.

[Comment 5 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) 2005-10-10 11:23:41 UTC]

Version 2.3 available...

euses-2.3.ebuild

I have removed the libc depend. All C programs need this; none that I know of
have it in the ebuild.
The ordering of the src_compile has changed a bit; autoreconf does all that you
were doing; and ebegin makes it seem prettier.
Keywords reduced to ~x86 as that is all I can test on for now.

This is in portage. Thanks for your report and initial ebuild :)

Thanks. Little did I know back when I wrote the original ebuild.
