Bug 756349 – app-portage/gentoolkit-0.5.0-r2: euse -i -p PACKAGE SOME USE FLAGS sets useflags

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: UNCONFIRMED ---

[Description AI0867 2020-11-24 15:17:20 UTC]

Using both the -i and -p options, followed by useflags causes euse to behave in an unexpected manner. I expect to receive information about the useflags, narrowed down to the package specified with -p, but instead the useflags are enabled for that package by writing to a package.use file.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Specific: euse -i -p app-office/libreoffice base branding cups java odk googledrive 
Generic: euse -i -p app-category/packagename useflag1 useflag2 useflag3
Actual Results:  
/etc/portage/package.use/packagename now contains
app-category/packagename useflag1 useflag2 useflag3


Expected Results:  
Printed information about the given useflags, specific to the specified package.
