The following ebuilds/eclasses currently inherits debug.eclass: ./app-office/openoffice/openoffice-2.0.3.ebuild:inherit check-reqs debug eutils fdo-mime flag-o-matic java-pkg kde-functions toolchain-funcs ./app-office/openoffice/openoffice-2.0.4.ebuild:inherit check-reqs debug eutils fdo-mime flag-o-matic java-pkg-opt-2 kde-functions multilib toolchain-funcs As per bug #55708 you can see that the current debug.eclass is a QA mess, and I'm going to replace it soon with a dummy version. The debug useflag should not mess with the user's *FLAGS, but rather relate to the debug codepaths of a package (asserts, extra output, and so on). If an user wants a debuggable system, he should follow the backtraces guide (http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml) that contains all the needed info. For this reason, please remove debug eclass from inherit line, add debug to IUSE if your package has a way to enable/disable debug codepaths, and set this bug resolved. Please do it for _every revisions of your package_. Thanks, Diego
