9 Atandard documentation: READMEs, manpages, info pages, is installed by
10 default. The doc flag enables extra documentation for developers. This
11 often needs to be built from the sources, and thus requires extra tools.
12 These often cause blocks, however, it does not appear that the doc flag
13 is at fault here. You have changed other flags, such as ipv6, so the
14 advice is to make such sweeping USE flag changes one at a time. This
15 often avoids the problem and otherwise makes it easier to see.

17 the output you posted is hard to read because your mailer wrapped it but
18 it may be that updating sysvinit manually first will clear it.
