HI mgorny, as I look into those ebuilds all of them use the USE=debug flag for dmalloc only, not for other debugging control so, as your second question, of course it's possible to switch to USE=dmalloc >> > > and to follow up, if we assume that USE="debug" does more than just > build the package against the dmalloc lib (which is likely), is there Yes, if this case exist.. then the separation would be good > any particular benefit to USE="debug -dmalloc" ?

This is a slightly improvement, but I'm also totally fine to keep current state as it is.. no big deal > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) > > iF4EAREIAAYFAlHDSyEACgkQ2ugaI38ACPAHUwEAqFFDyarLSE8I/k8eKBUibmxu > qZT2pnaaMj3nPEqrFxYBAIsIP8HAHR5mIaLBHKPiR6/oI/cxcu3h1XFodpbERO4t > =T2KX > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- >
