man emerge (sys-apps/portage-2.1_pre4-r1) |

[ebuild U ] sys-devel/distcc-2.16 [2.13-r1] USE="ipv6* -gtk -qt%" |

Here we see that the make.conf variable USE affects how this package is |
15 |
built. In this example, ipv6 optional support is enabled and both gtk and qt |
16 |
support are disabled. The asterisk following ipv6 indicates that ipv6 |
17 |
support was disabled the last time this packages was installed. The |
18 |
percent sign following qt indicates that the qt option has been added to the |
19 |
package since it was last installed. |

*Note: Flags that haven't changed since the last install are only displayed |
22 |
when you use the --pretend and --verbose options. |

Using the --quiet option will prevent all information from being displayed. |
