If I add -esd, -tcpd, -gnome, and -xinetd to the /etc/make.conf USE flags, this does not appear in emerge info's output.

`emerge info` does report the actual USE flags which are combined from make.globals, make.defaults, make.conf and the environment variables. If you add "-foo" in make.conf the "foo" flag will be removed from the actual USE flags.
Yeah, but then it insists on installing tcp-wrappers (for example) with ORBit, even though -tcpd has been added /etc/make.conf.
orbit doesnt DEPEND on tcp-wrappers, look at the ebuilds just because you have -tcpd doesnt mean you wont get tcp-wrappers ... if a package needs it, you're gonna get it look into what package is trying to pull it in and see if that package actually needs tcp-wrappers

( sys-devel/gettext ) >=sys-apps/tcp-wrappers-7.6 =dev-libs/glib-1.2*" RDEPEND="virtual/glibc =dev-libs/glib-1.2*" So, now, how is it that when I have -tcpd in my USE environment, ORBit still installs tcp-wrappers? And who put this dependency in the ebuild in the first place?
ah i checked orbit2, not orbit USE flags affect OPTIONAL depends, not REQUIRED depends so if you have -X in USE but try to emerge say KDE, you're gonna get X cause KDE needs it we'll let gnome figure out if tcpwrappers is a required depend
Well, as we all seem to have acknowledged, ORBit builds just fine without tcp-wrappers, so this dependency should be changed.
technically, this is the same bug. in short, we would gladly accept patches :) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 34037 ***
