Hi Grant,

    You are probably looking for enalyze from app-portage/gentookit.
    Presently it will rebuild your package.accept_keywords and
package.use files after analyzing them.

    Its pretty darn helpful and only needs a little massaging after its
done to be perfectly useful as a drop-in replacement file.

Kind Regards,
