9 I don't need to find an example; the logic as it stands is clearly
10 consistent. It's a simple enough concept; in your example you want
11 built_with_use to mean "package is installed and it was built with
12 USE=foo" whereas clearly there's nothing wrong with asking for "if the
13 package is installed, it needs USE=foo".
