Description kavol 2014-05-24 09:47:57 UTC

Please see https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=508806#c6 and also that bug description.

If I have gtk3 flag enabled, then euse should report it as enabled.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. euse -I gtk3

Actual Results:  
global use flags (searching: gtk3)
************************************************************
no matching entries found

local use flags (searching: gtk3)
************************************************************
[-      ] gtk3 (app-office/libreoffice):
Enable highly experimental gtk3 frontend

[-      ] gtk3 (media-sound/easytag):
Enable GTK+:3 support (default) and disable GTK+:2 support

[-      ] gtk3 (net-analyzer/wireshark):
Build the wireshark executable with a GTK+ UI version 3.


Expected Results:  
global use flags (searching: gtk3)
************************************************************
no matching entries found

local use flags (searching: gtk3)
************************************************************
[+      ] gtk3 (app-office/libreoffice):
Enable highly experimental gtk3 frontend

[+      ] gtk3 (media-sound/easytag):
Enable GTK+:3 support (default) and disable GTK+:2 support

[+      ] gtk3 (net-analyzer/wireshark):
Build the wireshark executable with a GTK+ UI version 3.

euse reports USE flags set in your profile and make.conf.
euse does not look at any ebuilds to find out.
USE defaults are set by ebuilds.
euse does not report USE flags set in ebuilds.

See the new summary, which would fulfill what's asked for here (except that not all packages in the expected results have this default, wireshark does); therefore, I think this is a reasonable feature request for a normal expectation.
