Description Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2008-05-16 07:04:53 UTC
dev-util/cvs installs a file /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/cvs-format.el. The file contains definitions for a C indentation style. It is not loaded by default, but the user must activate it manually. In any case, it is not very useful to have it in the site-lisp directory. Also, when loading it, the standard C indentation will be clobbered.

I propose to get rid of the emacs USE flag and not install the file. Or it could be installed under /usr/share/doc/ instead.

Patch will follow.
