--newuse is only needed, if you change global USE flags. There |
8 |
shouldn't be many flags you set globally, ie. in /etc/make.conf. |
9 |
Instead, set the USE flags in /etc/portage/package.use. |

I don't think your question can be answered "globally". What a |
14 |
USE flag does, is highly dependent upon the package which employs |
15 |
this flag. And generally, the name of the flag should be quite |
16 |
self explanatory - or at least the description should show, what |
17 |
it does (I use "euse -i $flag" to get the description). |
18 |
|
19 |
But if you need in detail information, you'll have to check out |
20 |
the ebuild and see what it does. |
