Description Chris Bainbridge (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-05-06 18:22:04 UTC 
no* flags are confusing and their use discouraged.
Comment 1 Vlastimil Babka (Caster) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-05-06 18:25:44 UTC 
We need them for backward compatibility until everything in tree is converted to use split-ant instead of depending on ant-tasks. Then whole ant-tasks can go away and flags (converted to the positive form) can move to dev-java/ant.

Or we can remove them now and force everyone to install everything, if that's worth.

+*ant-tasks-1.7.0-r4 (04 Jan 2008)
+*ant-tasks-1.7.0-r3 (04 Jan 2008)

+  04 Jan 2008; Vlastimil Babka <caster@gentoo.org>
+  +ant-tasks-1.7.0-r3.ebuild, +ant-tasks-1.7.0-r4.ebuild:
+  Revbumps to replace the no* USE flags with standard kind of flags, bug
+  #177362. The 1.7.0-r4 is EAPI=1 with most of the flags enabled by default.
+  Note that user setting of the flags can no longer break building Java
+  packages.

After 203750 is resolved, we'll get these stabilized, I will remove 1.6.5 and 1.7.0-r2 and this bug is gonna be resolved.
Comment 3 Vlastimil Babka (Caster) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-01-18 22:48:36 UTC 
OK let's stabilize ant-tasks-1.7.0-r4. Not 30 days yet but since it was just a flag renaming, shouldn't harm. Also forget -r3, EAPI=1 is the way to go.

Reopening until the no* flags are removed.

Which just happened, after removing whole ant 1.6.5.
