Description Dmitrij D. Czarkoff 2008-05-05 09:35:02 UTC 
USE flags forced by /etc/portage/package.use look the same as other flags, while it is sometimes reasonable to have them looking different. Eg.:

ddc@ddclpc ~ $ grep openssh /etc/portage/package.use 
net-misc/openssh -ldap
ddc@ddclpc ~ $ emerge -pv openssh

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild   R   ] net-misc/openssh-5.0_p1-r1  USE="X pam tcpd -X509 -hpn -kerberos -ldap -libedit (-selinux) -skey -smartcard -static" 0 kB 

Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB

It might be a good idea to have the emerge output as following:

ddc@ddclpc ~ $ emerge -pv openssh

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

[ebuild   R   ] net-misc/openssh-5.0_p1-r1  USE="X pam tcpd -X509 -hpn -kerberos [-ldap] -libedit (-selinux) -skey -smartcard -static" 0 kB
