I have found the documentation to be very good, except around use flags for portage.
My question is what is the best way to deal with them? Does portage automatically add the appropriate use flags when installing software with emerge?
Seperating only needed use flags for each app would sound the best, but that looks like a lot of work. |
Fucking REALLY???!!!! The documentation SUCKS ASS. The manuals reflect CFLAGS which are pretty much obsolete. the Gentoo wiki? shows CFLAGS for i3, 4, 5, and 686 cpus! come the fuck on. do you own a machine that employs an i486 cpu? or even a pentium M for that matter? i am willing to bet NO. and if you do, that's a pretty sad case, considering one can buy a used dual core laptop for about a hundred bucks. that's about 14 hours at the current minimum wage rate. and i'm being generous in my calculations there.
I don't know who you're trying to impress with your "oh the install blablabla is pretty good". i'd like to know what planet you're from. actually, i'm ok. i don't need to know.

you clearly know use flags much better than i do.... my understanding is hierarchy of profile setting a bunch of use flags that i don't know about, then make.conf, then package.use |
LOL
