Please do not lose extra information provided in local descriptions
in this and many other cases where you remove the local description
(in other proposed global USE flag cases as well). Just don't
remove the local description then. Thanks.
I've used my best judgment to figure out whether the local
description actually provides any "extra information". I didn't
touch the gtkglsink-related flags since they provided some
information. I fail to see how "platform usage" adds any information.
With the tabs in the raw patch indent rendered as 8 spaces, my eyes
shifted (no less than on 3 looking occurrences while also trying to get
only this chunk into the reply) and I thought you are removing
precisely that gtkglsink comment, sorry!
If you have "other proposed global USE flag cases" that are removing information, please be more specific.
I don't think any of these are very important, but if I were to
nitpick:
* x11-apps/mesa-progs local gles2 USE desc looked vaguely more useful
than the new global; might be even more useful if it named the
utilities by name (main one of interest is es2_info).
* "asm - Enable using assembly for optimization" reads a bit weird -
ultimately C, rust, etc end up using assembly in a way too. I would
have went with something more of the "Enable use of hand optimized
assembly routines" theme for the global desc.
* gnustep-base/gnustep-gui USE=speech seems to have told something
completely different than the global USE flag; maybe was looked into
and determined it's actually indeed text-to-speech* Some specify what
dep is used, but in many cases it's the obvious candidate. Maybe games- engine/scummvm isn't that obvious. But users will see from the deptree.
* kde-apps/konqueror and net-misc/eventd specifies USE=speech installs
a plugin, which might be useful information IF that's something that
might need to be enabled by user on top to load the plugin. Not
important.
