Description Bugs Bunny 2007-07-07 17:23:04 UTC
These packages could all benefit from a useflag on audit. The all have optional support to enable and disable audit support.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge audit
2. emerge shadow
3.

Actual Results:  
shadow and others will link to audit automatically

What kind of audit useflag? What should it do exactly?

Stupid people should not be able to handle bugs first off. The audit useflag would control weather or not a package builds support for sys-process/audit. Enough said.

Learn how to file useful bugs, please; and also keep the comments such as the one above for yourself, it adds nothing to the problem here. Additionally, these four packages have zero in common with each other, how do you exactly expect this bug to be assigned?

Go file separate bugs, one per ebuild; this cannot be assigned.
Comment 4 Bugs Bunny 2007-07-08 00:27:52 UTC
package maintainers should fix there bugs this is a meta bug I am not opening a seperate bug for each package that is useless.

Bugs Bunny:
that is how things work around here ... meta/mega bugs get noisy/troublesome and it is much easier for developers to track their own things.

i'll handle shadow

Jakub:
funny, i read your comment #3 and all i can think is "that's calling the kettle black"

Bugs Bunny,
seriously, with that attitude, I'm not sure anyone will want to bother resolving this. Get a clue, follow "the rules" and provide patches.

What exactly do you expect to happen with consolekit?
Comment 8 Bugs Bunny 2007-07-09 13:56:01 UTC
I will put up a patch in a while, might be late tonight before I can get around to it but I will show ya what is expected it is clear as day.
Comment 9 Doug Goldstein (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-07-11 13:45:52 UTC
yes wonderful, let's keep generating bug spam and re-assigning and changing subjects and topics. But until someone can tell me what you expect me to do I'm closing this as invalid since there is no magical "--with-audit" flag on consolekit.
