In /usr/portage/profiles/use.desc you'll find "multilib". I am doing an x86_64 install,had this flag set by hand. I fired up ufed set some flags and corrected/removed those which were wrong. I then did emerge -e system and emerge -e world. Revdep-rebuild now wants to emerge a 32 bit kde lib and when it has done this and I run revdep-rebuild again it wants to emerge it again. I then checked my /etc/make.conf and "multilib" was gone! I fired up ufed again and sure enough:no multilib! It is in /usr/portage/profiles/use.desc however. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.run ufed. 2. 3. Expected Results: ufed should have shown "multilib".
The multilib use flag is masked in the base profile and purposefully forced only for specific profiles. You cannot toggle it, since you're not supposed to. When you want to set it in a custom system, you have to create a custom profile. That ufed doesn't show it is correct. The 2008 multilib profile is /usr/portage/profiles/default/linux/amd64/2008.0/

That should give me the multilib flag or not? Gerard.
