Bug 315677 – dev-java/zemberek-2.1.1 linguas_tr default does not work

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE

[Description Thomas Kahle (RETIRED) 2010-04-17 01:13:17 UTC]

Hi, 

when emerging app-text/zemberek-server it requires the linguas_tr useflag on dev-java/zemberek, and looking in the zemberek ebuild it is intended that this is set by default:

IUSE="linguas_tk +linguas_tr"

However, this does not work as linguas_tr is not automatically selected. I don't know if use flag defaults for linguas_ useflags are supported?
The consequence is that one has to insert either LINGUAS="tr" or USE="linguas_tr" manually in the proper places. 
(Maybe this is a portage bug?)

Reproducible: Always

Portage team, any ideas?

The behavior for USE_EXPAND variable settings, like LINGUAS, in make.conf is that it overrides any settings for the corresponding USE flags from the profile and IUSE defaults. I don't plan to change this behavior since, for example, users have come to expect that a VIDEO_CARDS setting in make.conf will override all of the corresponding flags from the profile.

If you'd like different behavior, you can avoid setting USE_EXPAND variables in make.conf and instead set the corresponding USE flags. For example:

USE="linguas_en linguas_en_US"

A setting like this will not override other linguas_* settings from the profile and IUSE defaults.
