Sounds like a really good idea to me. Will this require any modifications to portage, or will it automagically ignore # comments in that file? > I usually like to know the reason why these flags are being switched on. > Certainly there are some flags that I don't mind and there are others > where I just have to wonder why the hell it's in use.defaults in the > first place. I recently added the 'udev' flag which is automatically turned on by sys-fs/udev. This is needed by at least one package (sys-apps/pcmciautils) to determine if the user wishes to install pcmciautils as an udev helper or as a hotplug helper.
