Hi, developers. Just a quick note: the CPU_FLAGS_X86 conversion of the Gentoo repository is complete now.
More specifically: 1. all packages (except app-emulation/bochs) use new CPU_FLAGS_X86 flags. Whenever appropriate, the used flags were fixed to match common naming. 2. app-emulation/bochs got local USE=3dnow and USE=avx since the flag control support of emulating the two instruction sets rather than using host CPU instruction sets. 3. Global definitions of old USE flags were removed to make sure repoman will complain when someone mistakenly tries to use them. This hopefully will help getting overlays in shape. If someone wants a bit of a challenge, I've assembled list of packages potentially using old flags in overlays [1], grouped by layman overlay name. I will probably start mailing the overlay owners or filing bugs myself in a few days, after my initial overlay QA runs are done. At this point, I think we can also start discussing introducing CPU_FLAGS_* for other architectures. [1]:http://dev.gentoo.org/~mgorny/tmp/cpuflags-in-overlays.txt -- Best regards, Michał Górny
