1 I used ufed to edit USE flags with the result:

34 I decided to try ufed per <http://gentoo-wiki.com/FAQ_USE_Flags>,
35 however was mystified that neither /etc/portage/package.use nor
36 /etc/portage/package.keywords were changed.
37
38 Shouldn't changes be made to files in /etc/portagae, preferably?
