14 Here you go:
15
16 buildpkg
17 Binary packages will be created for all packages that are merged. Also
18 see quickpkg(1) and emerge(1) --buildpkg and --buildpkgonly options.
19
20 buildsyspkg
21 Build binary packages for just packages in the system set.
22
23 As a example, this is my line from make.conf:
24
25 FEATURES="buildpkg sandbox parallel-fetch --keep-going"
26
27 That help?
