No, it means the flag setting changed since the last install. The newer |
| 10 |
portage also has a % to show the flag has been added to the ebuild since |
| 11 |
the last install. |

You are thinking of use.defaults, which appear to have been phased out |
| 14 |
for the very latest portage, judging by the number of extra packages with |
| 15 |
-flag* that appeared in emerge --newuse world after updating portage. I |
| 16 |
had no idea so many of my USE flags had been set by use.defaults rather |
| 17 |
than the profile. |
