Examples include... WHY is "arts" turned on... There's absolutely no
reason for it. AFAIK, you can even build KDE without it.
Why are we turning "gnome" on... who says you want to pull in the damn
desktop?
"eds"... very very very specific Gnome app that most people don't want
support for. If I remember correctly, this was added cause someone was
too lazy to do the right work around in the ebuild.
"gtk" and "gtk2", I thought we cleaned up this mess of just 1 USE flag.
But seriously, why are these on?
"kde", uh same reason and Gnome above...
"ogg", "oggvorbis", "vorbis"... I thought we cleaned up this mess...
I didn't bitch enough to remove oggvorbis.
please update your ebuilds...
