Hi, I was pointed by a user that the gimp ebuilds configure run produces warnings about unrecognized options. Looks like this: configure: WARNING: Unrecognized options: --with-hal, --without-wmf
A short grep over my portage logdir showed lots of these in various packages. My suggestion would be that we add a QA warning to portage for every econf call causing such a warning. Probably there are mostly two reasons when such a warning occurs: - The ebuild writer thinks there must be an option for en/disabling foo, though adding use_enable/use_with foo, although it's autodetected. We have an automagic dep. - The option was there in previous versions, but got removed (i.e. is now default / can't be built without foo any more). Both cases should be fixed and may hide other bugs, though a QA warning would be good. Thoughts? -- Hanno Böck Blog: http://www.hboeck.de/ GPG: 3DBD3B20 Jabber/Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
