The meaning of any one USE flag varies widely across packages. I could |

never say "I want to enable USE=gstreamer" for every package in the |
9 |
tree, because I have no idea what it does for most of them. Setting |
10 |
USE=whatever globally essentially means "make random changes to my |
11 |
system" -- hence my wording. |

The meaning of a USE flag is per-package, so per-package is the only |
14 |
meaningful way to set them. |
