Description René Fleschenberg 2007-05-08 09:23:14 UTC
emerge(1) lacks an explanation of USE flags in parentheses.
Comment 1 Andrew Gaffney (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-05-08 13:19:51 UTC
Sure it does:

              () circumfix = forced, masked, or removed
Comment 2 René Fleschenberg 2007-05-08 13:33:55 UTC
I was looking in the 'OUTPUT' section. This should maybe be mentioned there, too, not only under the description for '-v'.
