same problem for dev-java/sun-jdk which is not listed by "equery hasuse nsplugin", but has the nsplugin USE flag
$ equery hasuse --help List all installed packages that have a given USE flag Usage: hasuse [options] USE-flag options -h, --help display this help message -I, --exclude-installed exclude installed packages from search path -o, --overlay-tree include overlays in search path -p, --portage-tree include entire portage tree in search path -F, --format=TMPL specify a custom output format TMPL a format template using (see man page): $location, $mask, $mask2, $cp, $cpv, $category, $name, $version, $revision, $fullversion, $slot, $repo, $keywords ergo, I infer that one must pass -p to search all of portage
