I think what the OP is asking, is where the usability of the flags is |
| 61 |
specified in the Firefox ebuild(s) - which it quite clearly isn't. If |
| 62 |
this is the case, I think the ipv6 USE-flag is added by an inherited |
| 63 |
eclass (assuming they can do that) - probably one of the mozilla ones. |
