There are use flag editors which will display entire list of flags |
| 11 |
(along with their descriptions) and let you select or deselect the ones |
| 12 |
you want. I use ufed, but there are some others in portage. One |
| 13 |
approach is to go through the list once (there are a lot of them) and at |
| 14 |
least select the ones you're sure you want. Then if ever some feature |
| 15 |
you wanted doesn't seem to be in place for a package, check its use |
| 16 |
flags. |
