The plus sign means that it will be compiled with support for that |
| 19 |
flag. It means you can use that basically. |

It depends on whether you will use them or not. This is what that flag |
| 27 |
is for: "ppds - Adds support for automatically generated ppd (printing |
| 28 |
driver) files." If you need it, edit make.conf file and put it in the |
| 29 |
USE= line. The snmp is this: "snmp - Adds support for the Simple |
| 30 |
Network Management Protocol if available." You can get the same info |
| 31 |
from here: /usr/portage/profiles/use.desc |

If I recall correctly, that * means it has been changed since the |
| 44 |
program was instaled. If you changed some flags recently, you may want |
| 45 |
to do a emerge -Nvp world to see what else has changed. If everything |
| 46 |
looks OK, take off the p and let it recompile those for you so it will |
| 47 |
work correctly. |

Hope that helps. |
