Unfortunately, the precise meaning of the gtk/gtk2/gtk3 flags is still an open issue. There is a QA policy draft, but it is not yet in force: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Quality_Assurance/Policies#gtk.2Fgtk2.2Fgtk3_USE_flag_situation Unless that policy is settled, we won't touch the gtk and gtk3 flags in Emacs ebuilds, and their meaning will be as described: gtk - Add support for x11-libs/gtk+ (The GIMP Toolkit) gtk3 - Prefer version 3 of the GIMP Toolkit to version 2 (x11-libs/gtk+) That is, with USE="-gtk" you'll get no GTK support. The ebuild doesn't output a warning for the USE="-gtk gtk3" configuration, because +gtk3 is enabled by IUSE default (so users would get the warning even if they don't have gtk3 explicitly enabled, which would be confusing). |
