Disabled (in a strange way, but disabled) without revbump.

If somebody cares about adding an USE flag for that, but I'm not sure what it ends up gaining, the proper econf line would be

$(use_with !unistring included-libunistring)

(please copy verbatim).

[Comment 2 SpanKY 2010-07-02 05:37:33 UTC]

that configure flag implies libunistring is bundled into gettext and we're using a local copy ?

[Comment 3 Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) 2010-07-02 05:42:37 UTC]

No, blame the idiocy of gnulib macros, since there _isn't_ an internal copy, that form actually disables libunistring. I don't even want to think who dreamed about that.
