What I belive you're seeing is that there have been new flags added or |
| 10 |
removed from ebuilds and therefor there is need to rebuild a lot of |
| 11 |
packages to make everything fall in line. For myself recently I saw a |
| 12 |
lot of perl packages rebuilt because the 'minimal' USE flag was set as |
| 13 |
'-' by default instead of not at all (or something like that). |
