Hi,
I'd like to propose a new global USE flag named 'logrotate' to add
support for app-admin/logrotate (by installing logrotate config files
to /etc/logrotate.d/).
There are currently one local USE flag named logrotate in
net-proxy/squid, which of course isn't enough to justify having a global

It's as simple as:

Take a look at bash-completion.eclass. I'm strongly in favour of

Portage is slow? How to make it faster? By removing unused ebuilds!

Total ebuilds to remove: 4643

Define "faster". All this would do is cut down on a couple of stats
per pkg; the # of ebuilds per pkg isn't a huge issue, the scanning of

Hi,
A few months ago I changed my CHOST in make.conf from i386-pc-linux-gnu
to i686-pc-linux-gnu. Everything went ok until I had to install some
python package; the old chost was hardcoded somewhere in
/usr/lib/python2.3 or similar and therefore it still wanted to use the
i386-toolchain when build

Don't do that. You need to rebuild your entire system if you're changing

I'd say that "dumb USE flag" is rather harsh. It seems clear that (a)
many users would like a logrotate script installed for them, and since

If that doesn't fix it, you get to keep the pieces.

Can confirm that (much less collisons with 2005.0), but as there exist

Few seconds? Try few miliseconds, if anything, at all, ever. The
original email in this thread gave me the best laugh I've had in a
while, until I realized it came from a dev; then I was very sad.
