I think FlagAction should implement strictly boolean options, that is --foo and --no-foo, without arguments at all. For ConfigureAction, there is a precedent (unless I’m mistaken) in configure, which permits such things: --without-unicode --with-unicode=ucs4 --with-unicode (uses default value for arg) I say we focus on the simple FlagAction for this bug and keep ConfigureAction for another patch. Yaniv: Can you give us a status update?
