Because Opera and Skype are already using "qt-static", it doesn't make sense to invent yet another flag... So please rename it to qt-static

local use flags (searching: qt-static)
************************************************************
[-    ] qt-static (net-im/skype):
Installs binaries statically linked to Qt

[-    ] qt-static (www-client/opera):
Install binaries statically linked to Qt

local use flags (searching: builtin-qt)
************************************************************
[-    ] builtin-qt (media-sound/teamspeak-client-bin):
use bundled builtin Qt instead of system-installed x11-libs/qt-gui.

hey,

thanks for the notice, but I will drop this use-flag anyway as I had an email exchange with the upstream teamspeak developers and they stated that they strongly recommend using the package-provided qt-libs and do explicitely not support any other qt libraries.

however, qt-static leads to false intention, from my point of view, qt-static sounds like the package in question is using a statically linked qt, which is would be wrong for teamspeak - I do not know the case for skype and friends however.
