Description Kevin Haddock 2010-10-14 18:26:51 UTC
There may be other qemu use flags missing from use.desc also.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge slocate
2. sudo updatedb
3. grep kqemu `locate use.desc`

Actual Results:  
nothing

Expected Results:  
entry for kqemu use flag

I had to delve into the ebuild file to figure out if such a use flag existed.

-use.desc is for global use flags
-use.local.desc if for local use flags

kqemu is a local use flag only. You may enjoy the quse command from app-portage/portage-utils..

%% quse -D kqemu
 local:kqemu:app-emulation/qemu: Enables the kernel acceleration module on a x86/x86-64 cpu
 local:kqemu:app-emulation/qemu-softmmu: Enables the kernel acceleration module on a x86/x86-64 cpu
