If you do not just want to '-foo' the flags you do not want, do in |
| 18 |
/etc/make.conf: |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
---------------------------------------------- |
| 21 |
USE="-* whatever_flags_you_want" |
| 22 |
---------------------------------------------- |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Where the '-*' means to remove all the default USE flags. Do not |
| 25 |
edit make.default directly .... |
