I don't see any of those USE flags. This is from the octopus overlay: |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
[ebuild R ~] www-client/palemoon-27.2.1::octopus USE="alsa dbus ffmpeg |

If I remove that overlay and install the palemoon overlay, I get this: |
| 24 |
|

This is in spite of having "www-client/palemoon" (no qualifiers) in |
| 44 |
package.keywords, and having only version 4.9.4 p1.0 of GCC installed. |
