To tell the truth, you can put either kind of use flag in either file. |

The difference is what you want to apply the flag to. |

If you want only a single package to have a "global" use flag set |
14 |
differently from the rest of the system, you put it in package.use. If |

you see a "local" flag that might later be used by other packages, or |
16 |
is used by multiple packages, you might want to put it in make.conf. |
