IUSE.invalid 1 media-libs/alsa-lib/alsa-lib-1.0.17.ebuild: alsa_pcm_plugins_mmap_emul This was caused by alsa_pcm_plugins.desc missing the description. The error message should directly tell me that.

pkgcheck already catches it. Tested by adding a new target arch to qemu called "arthur". If I just use it as is, I get this result, which is correct. app-emulation/qemu UnknownUseFlags: version 7.1.0: unknown USE flags: 'qemu_softmmu_targets_arthur', 'qemu_user_targets_arthur' If instead of the correct solution (adding variant to 'profiles/desc/') I add them at package's metadata.xml, using pkgcheck I now get: app-emulation/qemu ProbableUseExpand: USE_EXPAND group 'QEMU_SOFTMMU_TARGETS' matches local USE flag: 'qemu_softmmu_targets_arthur' ProbableUseExpand: USE_EXPAND group 'QEMU_USER_TARGETS' matches local USE flag: 'qemu_user_targets_arthur' I think this is exactly what was requested in this bug.
