I think you go down the wrong path when you ask someone else what USE |
| 13 |
flags *you* need. We don't know you and your requirements/preferences |
| 14 |
enough to know what is needed for you. It's like going up to a random |
| 15 |
person and asking them if you should have your kitchen repainted and if |
| 16 |
so what color. That rarely happens but for kitchens but confusingly |
| 17 |
enough it's frequent for USE flags. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Also, "emerge --info |grep USE" isn't very USEful (IMO) because it only |
| 20 |
shows what USE flags you have turned on, not the ones you have turned |
| 21 |
off. |
