As I understand it, yes. To see which flags a particular package can |
| 30 |
specify you can either run: |
| 31 |
================================================== |
| 32 |
# emerge -uDpv package_name (just as you did above) |
| 33 |
================================================== |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
or you could try the equery command of the gentoolkit, e.g.: |
| 36 |
================================================== |
| 37 |
# # equery uses gnumeric |
| 38 |
[ Colour Code : set unset ] |
| 39 |
[ Legend : (U) Col 1 - Current USE flags ] |
| 40 |
[ : (I) Col 2 - Installed With USE flags ] |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
U I [ Found these USE variables in : app-office/gnumeric-1.2.0 ] |

- - libgda : Adds GNU Data Access (CORBA wrapper) support for gnumeric |
| 44 |
- - gnomedb : unknown |
| 45 |
+ + python : Adds support/bindings for the Python language |
| 46 |
+ + bonobo : Adds support for gnome-base/bonobo (Gnome CORBA |

Of course all this and much more is well documented in the Gentoo guide: |
