From the emerge man page: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
() circumfix forced, masked, or removed |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |

So the answer is usually one of |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
- flag not in ebuild anymore. Look in the ebuild |
| 26 |
- masked in profile. For these I usually search the profile directory |
| 27 |
recursively for the flag and figure it out that way |
| 28 |

What is it that you are trying to find out? A disabled flag is disabled |
| 31 |
and can't work, what further detail do you need? |
