Description SpanKY gentoo-dev 2009-01-26 18:32:08 UTC
i dont think sys-libs/db makes it into stage1 or stage2, so right away USE=bootstrap doesnt make much sense.  even then, if it needs libtool or similar autotools, it should depend on them and assume they're available as none of those packages depend on sys-libs/db.
Comment 1 Andrew Gaffney (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-02-06 15:22:16 UTC
I can confirm that this package does not appear in stage1 or stage2, so feel free to whack the USE flag.
